But Mr. Dalby, don't be too exact about the details of the work ... and by the way, can we do some HVAC funding, too? Just tell us where to lavish the subsidy.
What? You bill for simple directional slush? Hey, that's fine. Put it on our tab.
Dalby: Public, private sectors should work togetherEven though Dalby apparently does not labor under the apparent gag order inflicted on Ed Clere and Ron Grooms by Saint Mitch, he conveniently fails to address the negative effect on small business, jobs, the economy and families posed by tolling existing Ohio River bridges to finance the elephantine boondoggle of the ORBP.
We did not request funding from the city of New Albany, but when council member Jeff Gahan approached us about New Albany contracting with 1si for economic development services, we were honored and encouraged by the council’s consideration. Community development works best when public-private partnerships are forged seeking to build up the economy and where the goal is to help businesses create jobs that help individuals and families prosper.
Rather, it would appear that a egregious charm campaign is gearing up. On Wednesday, Jerry Finn wrote a letter to the editor explaining the benefits of the Horseshoe Foundation's Small Business Revolving Loan Fund: Yes, and as I'd already pointed out in my weekly column of September 16, these benefits are quite real.
Unfortunately, in spite of the ongoing imperative to link them to 1Si, they have little to do with the administrator of the application process. Concurrently, 1Si's big business as usual ideologies (see: bridge tolls, exurban sprawl advocacy) Clerely hurt the prospects for small business just as much as the Foundation's monies assist them.
Meanwhile, Bluegill has more for you on the topic of Dalby's column. Wait for it ...
