  1. 1.) Does the lobbyist installed as Chairman of the Board have any experience with large festivals or events?
    2.) How many of the “new” board members were contributors to Mayor Finkam’s campaign?
    3.) Will we see a number of new vendors, service providers, etc., with the “correct” political ties?

    Inquiring minds want to know…

    1. Gosh, if I were a Carmel taxpayer I’d want to know…

      1) How much tax money does the City contribute to the organization every year?
      2) Does the organization pay for the ice rink or pay rent on the park space to put on their show, and do they pay for the police and emergency services on site for the event? If not, what’s the value of all that contribution by the City?
      3) Does the organization publish an annual financial report for the Mayor and Council to review?

  2. If current councilors that are still in office don’t understand the ins and outs, then they shouldn’t be representing our city. I applaud the mayor for pulling back the curtain and making hard decisions. No Adam, waiting another season doesn’t save the tax payers any money. Actually surprised the bank teller is still the CEO. Time will tell how long that will last.
