This is actually a good bill to help market Indiana and rebrand itself. Most people that don’t know much about Indiana only think
there’s the Indy500 and sporting events. This is a chance for many communities throughout the state to get tourist to pay attention to more things to do all around Indiana. If done correctly, this could definitely be a huge boost to the economy state wide.
This doesn’t seem too far off or different of what the legislatures just heard people lobby against creating (the Mile Square Tax District) an EED. Fine let this pass – have the mile square district that the tax is on now roll up into this legislation and TID. Because that is what the goal of that Mile-Square taxable district is to make it more welcoming, pleasant and enjoyable downtown for tourists and residents. No? An trying to invest in more projects to make it look nice that are also capital projects, just like this bill for a TID???
I can see it now…we’ll have mountains for skiing and wintersports, raging white water rivers for canoeing and kayaking. Maybe a glacier on the mountains feeding those rivers…almost no limitation on the imagination of how to develop new tourism destinations in Indiana.
I know each little community and township is special to someone, for some reason. But for most folks, there is little in the way of natural landscape features or local historical tradition to make these towns have appeal. It’s not the East Coast, or the gun slinging towns of the west and southwest, where history abounds. Kentucky has the bourbon trail…will Indiana have the KKK Legacy Trail? We can barely make French Lick work…what is the reason to go to Sheridan (don’t get me wrong, I like Sheridan. I have family there, and I drive past it regularly without complaint). But other than some high school basketball and football championships, what’s there?
Agree with the comment on this program and the Indy tax. The key difference, of course, is that this tourism program is slated to provide boondoggle dollars to the supermajority Republican members to take home to their districts, just as they take home excess road dollars. All to the detriment of Marion County.
