  1. Same old song and dance. Ask big. Get push back. Come back with a revised downsize and get approval.

    I’m not sure what I see when I drive by “the Farm” at Michigan Rd and Sycamore St.

    It sure isn’t a farm and definitely not fitting for Zionsville.

  2. This has got to be one of the most elitist comments I’ve ever seen:

    “Zionsville is the Rolls-Royce of small towns,” Julia Schultz told Plan Commission members. “In my opinion, if you want to live here, you’re welcome to earn it. In the meantime, there are plenty of affordable options nearby and no one is stopping anyone from earning their way. People don’t have a right to live here just because they want to any more than they have the right to expect us to provide affordable housing.”

    1. I live in Zionsville and thought her comment was awful. We should have a range of housing options so people can start out living here and move up if they choose. Not have to “earn it”.

    2. Julia sounds somewhere between “let them eat cake” and “I want to speak to your manager!”

  3. No matter what gets built here, avoiding any and all contruction in the flight zones is very important to future homeowners. Otherwise, they will come back and complain and threaten lawsuits about noise, etc., even though they knew the airport was there when they bought the place.
    Also, after looking at the current google earth maps, this site is destined for development and it looks like nothing will slow or stop it, except maybe low quality homes, for now.
