Secret Plan To Subsidize More Sprawl City To Buy 97 Acres - Councilmembers Angry City Manager Made Docs Public |
Documents The City of Loveland Released and Later Pulled From Agenda Cover Letter To Council Proposed Ordinance Authorizing Purchase Original Oct. 16 Agenda |
Recent disclosures of secret land purchase negotiations along I-25 and 402. Mayor Pro Tem Gene Pielin (who is running for Mayor) has asked the item be pulled off the Council's public agenda until after the election. Loveland taxpayers have grown weary of the City Council throwing every extra city dollar into "incentives" for development along I-25 corridor. As foreclusres rise in Loveland and property values decline, the public is angry over further "incentives" to create more new homes and retail along I-25. Pielin is said to be angry the City Manager placed the approval on the October 16, 2007 City Council agenda. It is clear they support the action (because they don't want to vote no and were aware of the negotiations) but prefer it be done after the elections since this action contradicts what they have been telling voters.. |
