Rookie49 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 If you dig up the explanation Rick Day gave,you will find that the concession people were doing exactly what they are supposed to,when it came time to get the health permit.They were told they had to have the other fees paid.When Mr. Day went to pay those fees he found out about the standard inspections the city requires vs. they county.I don't see anything underhanded that the city has done.It looks like some bad timing along with the fact that Lillean would not sell that has created this unfortunate situation.I have helped open three buisnesses now and it's the same old two to three weeks delay due to all of the inspections.To top it off,the 80,000 to fall into compliance is an awfully low ball amount.Even if TD bought the land,met the codes,stayed within noise limtitations,and kept the place presentable as that side of town grew,eminate domain would have been at the city's disposal.There isn't any need for any underhandedness anymore.Pushing the old out to bring in the new isn't considered criminal nowadays. Thanks Turbo. I probably could have said it quicker that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REBELRACER Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 the same thing bascially happened downtown when the city wanted to build the alamo dome.........they approached the owners with an offer, if they refused the city gave them another offer.......if the city didnt get what they wanted, they did what they had to in order to snag up the property.........you cant fight city hall, they make the rules and everyone has to either go with their rules or suffer the outcome.......

CNC93 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Well 30 years of oils and fuels being spilled in the pits ought to make a Kelly AFB type cleanup for the next land developer. Sure hope the landowner gets the property sold before those septic tanks start overflowing from rain again and she has to pay for environmental cleanup.
