Dear Editor:
Once again, the president of the Carmel City Council publicly evades the two issues a citizen raised at the council meeting two weeks ago:
- What has or is the Council doing to enforce guarantees provided by a developer who promised five buildings would be built by 2019, and none are built?
- What documentation can the Council provide to give evidence of its enforcing the guarantees?
Instead, the Council president fills the bandwidth with minutiae – bond amounts, bond payments, payments due, actual and anticipated payments and the arcane workings of Payments In Addition To Taxes (PIATT).
With re-election staring him in the face, the councilor might wish to be a little more candid. (Unless his council has done nothing or can’t prove it did nothing.)
It would help us all a lot.
Bill Shaffer
