Some hard questions...

MikeP....Oh well...maybe they'll throw up some of those "historically appropriate" junk auto hoods to make up for it!!!


Don't tease us with the notion that the car hood idea is still being entertained Mike. Being the arts lover that I am, I wanted to see those pesky Cohen car hoods on the PAC in the worst way. (SEE 409's photo idea in previous posts) Would have said so much about the rich arts heritage the downtown has been known for the last 5 decades. ....that and the velvet Elvis and "Dogs Playing Poker" paintings. Since the car hood idea won't happen at the PAC, perhaps 409 could give us a rendition of what a car hood attached to the new lighting would look like as we drive down S. Main St. Maybe the household name and street address stenciled on the car hood as well.......

Oh boy! Help me here. I may be in deep crap. Several years ago, I had an addition put on the house. I contracted the builder and submitted the plans to the city and got a building permit. Had the city inspector out to sign off at completion. Should I have gotten a "Certificate of Appropriatness" for this also? No one told me when applying for the building permit that I would need this Marty Kohler sponsored/ historicalgroup/snobby form as well.   

Speaking of appropriate.....isn't it time these city 's packed their bags and moved out of town?

Isn't there some type of legal entity that audits a city and their decision making staff. It seems like there are numerous almost criminal activities being done by our city leaders. Their real estate practices are out of control. Their favoritism affects everyone. I saw where a mayor in another state went to prison for choosing only a select group of contractors that were allowed to operate in the city. Does that happen here?
