At east its transparent now operating a for profit LLC. Good for her and the taxpayers of Carmel!
The nonprofit has always been totally transparent. Its charter gave the City of Carmel complete control over its board, and the nonprofit’s annual balance sheets were publicly available via the IRS. Additionally, there was no incentive for the original leaders of Carmel’s Christkindlmarkt to compete with Carmel until they were essentially forced out by Finkham.
Finkham is just an idiot. Complete forced error. She acted upon irrational paranoia & created a predictable self fulfilling prophecy.
*Finkam.
So now we have Finkam’s cronies who run it already cancelling days. That’s just great for people who come from out of town and get the big surprise when they arrive. Other cities in cold climates with markets don’t cancel when it’s below 20 degrees. Maybe I could see if it’s below zero, but all of a sudden 20 is too cold to be outside??? Are all city crews shutting down when it’s below 20 as well?
Calm down. It has closed before for cold or wet.
Eric M. – NOT for 20 degrees…
Eric M.; I’ll ask again. Are all city crews shutting down when it’s below 20 as well?
Dominic, this market is run by a separate organization that sets its own rules. How the city staffs in cold weather is irrelevant.
Three years ago, this policy was put into place by that organization (below is from their CEO):
We look at ambient temperature for the duration of the hours we’re open and make decisions based on that. For today, since it would be about 20 at the time of opening and 14 by the time we closed, we made the call. It isn’t too bad for guests who are there for thirty minutes – but it gets to a point where the heaters in the huts can’t keep up, and equipment (point of sales systems, hoses for serving machines, even sinks) starts to malfunction or fail. And if we add more heaters to huts, it blows fuses. It isn’t necessarily “if it’s below 20, we close” – but more along the lines of how long is it below 20? How far below 20? That’s what helps us make the decision.
I hope that helps.
How does Chicago keep theirs running under 20 degrees. Same setup, same huts?
Dominic – different organization.
Congrats Maria! I’m so happy for you!
Good, they can have her.
