8664 wins ‘Big Idea’ contest
The Greater Louisville Project announced that the grassroots movement 8664 is the winner of its Create Louisville: Your Big Idea project, but the group won’t get a one-on-one sit down with Mayor Greg Fischer as originally promised.
The contest was designed to engage citizens, elicit fresh thinking and new ideas about the city, and garnered more than 2,300 votes since it was launched last fall. Among more than a hundred “big ideas” submitted by community members with 8664 almost receiving more votes than the other top four winners combined.
New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

LEO's Fat Lip: 8664 wins ‘Big Idea’ contest.
I wonder if Kerry Stemler (a) read this, and (b) plans to outlaw big ideas that don't buttress a doomed automotive transport system at a cost of billions?
Pretty weak that Fischer changed the rules after seeing the finalists.
