IS IT TRUE February 20, 2015 Updated
IS IT TRUE we have discovered that the boat referred to by the Fire Chief that we interpreted to be the EFD fire boat was not the EFD fire boat?…we therefore retract and remove the previous paragraph and apologize to Chief Connolly for our misinterpretation of his words?…the CCO has always been a strong supporter of the EFD and the EPD and choose to criticize only for the purpose of stimulating improvements when they are needed?…that was not the case with respect to the Chief’s remarks yesterday?
IS IT TRUE if there is one thing that Mayor Winnecke and his Democrat opponent agree on these days, it is that downtown Evansville is the ideal location for the IU Medical School and that the State of Indiana should be looking at this with some sense of urgency with a willingness to spend more money than has been allocated?…it would be interesting to see if the two of them agree that $57 Million was the right amount of money for the City of Evansville to borrow to contribute to the project when there were two other locations that would have cost the taxpayers of Evansville nothing?…the economic impact to the Evansville region would be the same without regard to whether the IU Medical School landed downtown, on the east side, or in Warrick County?…the price being paid by the taxpayers of Evansville to choose the location of downtown Evansville seems a bit stiff to practical minds so the CCO would like very much to know what points these two disagree on with respect to this project?
IS IT TRUE if the truth emanated from the Civic Center last month (which is a very big if) then we are only one week away from seeing the renderings of the new and devolved stick built version of a downtown convention hotel?…we do remember Mayor Winnecke stating that the plans and the new quote would be available by the end of February in 2015?…it is nearly time to have a one year anniversary of the ground breaking ceremony held last March after the January scheduling was cancelled due to freezing?…we do not have our hopes up on this one as things like this have a way of leaking and we have not seen or heard of any leaks?
IS IT TRUE Mole # 6 tells us that the Evansville Police are investigating an incident that left a man with a stab wound?…this unfortunate victim was found wandering around on Columbia Street and New York Avenue around yesterday just after 5:00 pm?…reports state that the stabbing occurred somewhere on the south side of town which continues to be a hotbed of violence including a record 2014 for shootings?
IS IT TRUE another day has passed without any official disclosure about who the three anonymous boat cleaners who are credited for begin on board when the Inland Marina boat fire started?  …there are unofficial and unfounded reports about who two of them are but even those are not exactly definitive?…of all the mysteries surrounding the boat fire, we believe that the facts how the boat fire was started will soon be made public?

RIECKEN TO MOVE QUICKLY TO HELP VANDERBURGH, OTHER COUNTIES RECOVER POTENTIAL GAMING REVENUE LOSSES
INDIANAPOLIS – State Rep. Gail Riecken (D-Evansville) said today she will move quickly to pursue legislation that will enable Vanderburgh County and other local units of government to recover potentially devastating losses in revenue that would result if suggested changes in state gaming laws take place.
Riecken said she will offer an amendment to House Bill 1540 to enable local units to recoup losses that would come from provisions in the legislation that take away nearly $58 million in support to the local governments with casinos and eliminate a casino admissions tax that provided added proceeds to local units.
“If these changes come to pass, Vanderburgh County, Evansville and the Convention and Visitors Bureau together will lose approximately $4.2 million in revenue after December 31, 2016 that is critical to the ongoing needs of residents in our area,†Riecken said.
“At a time when local units are suffering under intense financial burdens that make it difficult to do things like keep our roads clear, our streets safe, and ensure that residents get the regular daily services they deserve, it is entirely unacceptable to me and many others that we should accept some of the provisions that are contained in the current version of HB 1540,†she added.
“In that light, it seems only fair to provide a means for local units to get that revenue back, and in this current atmosphere, I must say that a wagering tax appears to be the best option available,†Riecken said. “I will move as quickly as possible to provide that option.â€
HB 1540 will first become eligible for amendment by Riecken and other House members on Monday.
