Whose 11 Point Plan Is It ???

 

It appears Ed Z. feels he's under personal attack by angered residents for comments in his 10/11 point plan for Jeffersonville's future. Now he knows how the residents of Clark Arms must feel when a public official recommends their homes be replaced by "upscale" condos and they be relocated so as to increase the City's tax base. These residents made up of low income elderly and disabled were told basically they just don't fit into Ed Z's vision for the city's future in their "unsafe" apartment complex.

   His idea doesn't include where and how to pay for these residents of Clark Arms to be relocated, just they and their homes just don't fit into his master plan for the future of Jeffersonville. Instead of a plan to improve and make safe the living conditions for these residents , he suggests we just move them out hinting they provide little or no "disposable income" or tax base.

  Mr. Zastawny has no idea what a personal attack is .... Example: being told you don't belong in the new and improved downtown district.... being told your residence is unsafe and unsightly.  Makes no difference that  limited resources and income makes downtown convenient and practical for these residents living needs and quality of life. Now that improvements have been made downtown and your apartment building is now in prime location you are no longer wanted or fit into the future master plan....Now that is a personal attack.

 Mr Zastawny is playing the victim card because outraged residents spoke up and called him out by speaking from their hearts.

 The BatBlog wonders if Ed. Z's plan is a trial balloon for fellow councilman and mayoral candidate Dennis Julius ???  Julius has been very reluctant in our opinion of  stating just what his plan's are on the Canal ???  10 St. median mess ??? etc. etc. In just about every issue he appears to stand in the background and go along with the council majority... Is Ed.Z's plan also favored by Julius ???  They seem to vote alike on almost every issue...If not Julius needs to step forward with his own plan so the voters can get a feel of his own ideas before Election Day...
