  1. Zionsville, be ready for the public relations blitz that will dominate the forums in the IBJ, and the star. There will be many many posts pro-project, from Steve's public relations team, under anonymous or fake names. Lets look at some problems here. 1. Multi family housing. No matter how you paint it, a lot of this will be transient. Don't look at how it will be when its built, look at how it will be in 10-15 years. 2. WalMart. Hey, you approved the Pittman property, why not approve ours? 3. Traffic. Forget the residential feel of Sycamore street, that will be lost forever. Look at whats happening to Spring Mill and 116th with the Bridges. 4. Roads. All of the roads around there will have to be widened,and the traffice will be horrible. 5. Raintree residents, are you ready for this? 6. Police. Think about all the additional police presence you will have to have for those 400 apartments. Look at other more recent apartments in your area, and figure out the cost of additional fire and police coverage. Have your runs increased because of the apartments? We all know there will be commercial (including apartments) on 421, but do you really want that creeping west? Who is this really benefiting? Residents along Sycamore? Residents in Raintree? The general residents (who own, and keep up their homes) in Zionsville, or is it benefitting mainly the Pittman family, and the developer group? Don't make the same mistakes that Carmel made. You don't have a Palladium to support, and don't pay for over priced statues. Nor, do you subsidize rents in commercial buildings to get them occupied (for now). As I understand it, Zionsville mainly needs more money for schools. You may be making a terrible tradeoff, with multifamily housing, that will not pay the additonal revenue that is needed, because of the additional students. Keep Michigan road, and the roads out of town commercial. Keep the town owner occupied housing.

  2. GOB Bluth, from Arrested Development. But, they're "Illusions", not tricks.

  3. Lee Rosenthal leaving FOX 59 is a good thing. He once lied to me after a reporter and photographer approached my 8-year-old son in an effort to interview him after getting off the school bus. Instead, he suggested my son had not been truthful about what happened. Typical "reporting" that occurred under his watch.

  4. I thought The Prestige was a great movie with a terrific cast. With any "magic" movie you expect a little behind-the-scenes explanation but the plot twists and period atmosphere took The Prestige to a different level.

  5. Maybe it's not too late for the FBI to extend their hotel reservations...
