IS IT TRUE APRIL 23, 2018

13

We hope that today’s “IS IT TRUE” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way?

IS IT TRUE its been rumored that the members of the Winnecke Administration and movers and shakers of the Evansville Signature School could be negotiating a deal that will allow the City Of Evansville to give full control of the Victory Theater to the Evansville Signature School?  …we are told if this happens Venueworks contract may be voided and full control of the management and marketing of the Victory Theater could be the responsibility of the Evansville Signature School?

IS IT TRUE we commend Evansville Courier and Press writer John Martin for providing their reader’s with informative and accurate articles concerning complex issues?  … it’s a recognized fact that both John Martin and Jon Web are the literary mainstays of the Evansville Courier and Press?

IS IT TRUE that the University of Southern Indiana just concluded a national search for the next President of this institution of higher learning?  … it’s obvious that this nationwide search wasted approximately $100,000 of taxpayers dollars in order to find the next President of USI? …the Chairman of the Board of USI Trustees told members of the press that “competitive advantage in the selection process was now irrelevant” right after announcing that the current Provost of USI Ron Rochon was selected as the next President of USI? …we considered the statement made by the Chairman of the Board of USI Trustees that the “competitive advantage in the selection process was now irrelevant” very interesting?  …we hear how the search for the new President of USI was conducted could be a hot topic for students taking ethics classes at the University in months to come?

IS IT TRUE the search for the new president of USI reminds us when the former Evansville Mayor Jonathon Weinzapfel announced that he will be conducting a national search for a new Evansville Fire Chief? …that former Evansville Mayor Weinzapfel alleged that the national search committee has recommended that he appoint a City Councilman and fireman to be his next Fire Chief?

IS IT TRUE that its obvious that former Evansville Mayor of Evansville and Trustees of Institutions of USI should look up the true definition and the purpose of a “National Search”?

IS IT TRUE that Tortious interference, also known as intentional interference with contractual relations, in the common law of torts, occurs when one person intentionally damages someone else’s contractual or business relationships with a third party causing economic harm?  …when individuals colluding with each other to get a third party to interfere with a legal going concern in a way that a business is damaged for the reason of enhancing the blissful existence of a small number of privileged people could be considered Tortious interference? 

IS IT TRUE we respectfully suggest that the elected and appointed public officials who are involved in styling the new City of Evansville noise ordinance should be extremely aware that breaking the Tortious interference liability laws will not be allowed by those being affected by this overreaching noise ordinance?  …it’s been alleged that numerous e-mails were sent out between Harbors Edge residents, elected and appointed public officials concerning the drafting of the proposed noise ordinance have gotten into the wrong hands? …we are told if this ordinance passes the affected parties may sue all those involved in drafting this overreaching ordinance for Tortious interference?  … we have been told that majority of the City Council members (at least 5) have already agreed to support this ill-advised noise ordinance at this evening City Council meeting?  …we find it interesting how our elected city officials skip around the “Sunshine Laws”?

IS IT TRUE that Mole #4 tells us that roughly 20 Vectren employees were observed in company time volunteering to help the City of Evansville arborist in an effort to plant 500 trees near the Oakhill Cemetary?…these trees were planted at the same location where Vectren is planning to build a 4 MegaWatt solar field?…we are now beginning to wonder if there is a day in the future when the same Vectren employees volunteer to do a Paul Bunyan imitation and cut those 500 trees down to make way for the solar panels?…planning is a necessary exercise to avoid making efforts that must be undone because the right-hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing?

Todays “Readers Poll” question is: If the Republican primary for the 2nd District County Commission race was held today who would you vote for?

  1. Wonder why the Signature school would agree to bail out the City considering the annual cost of owing and operating has been between 700-800k per year. Wonder if Signature will keep an agreement with local 215 to supply the manpower?

    • I agree. Why handicap a nationally ranked high school with managing a commercial theater that has been a perpetual losing operation since the day it was opened. I see nothing positive that can come from this.

  2. IS IT TRUE that this proposed “Noise Ordinance” is focused entirely at Marina Point. Statistic show that young people by and large are avoiding employment in Evansville . . .why? they see Evansville as a place with little entertainment. Much like the Administration encouraging downtown condos and then wondering why only higher incomes can afford and of course, they are older and then complain about the noise from the downtown establishments . . .just nitwitery!!

    • Actually, Dances, there are annually >1900 “Too Much Noise” Calls to the EPD a year without any precise limits. It is a city wide problem. Doc

  3. City of Evansville Pattern Alert: Kill all perceived competition with the white elephant Ford Center for any money generating concerts. First, it was the slow and painful death of Mesker Amphitheater by intentional gross neglect. Now proposed transfer of the Victory to Sig School? Is that a test balloon for a transfer to the deep pocketed EVSC that already owns Bosse Field? If so, with the Victory Theater then busy with school band practices, orchestras, glee club, plays, special school events, only the ONB Events Center and the Ford Center are left to host money generating concerts.

  4. Old People: turn down your hearing aids, problem solved !

    That’s what I said, Bunny Bread.

  5. Has the City blocked the McCurdy’s sewer line access to prevent continued pumping of massive amounts of water into the sewers?? With the McCurdy owing north of $1.5 million to the City, you’d think the City would take self help to prevent continued financial losses from the McCurdy discharges.

    • The Confederate monuments should all be taken out of public spaces.
      Across the United States.
