r <br />I suggest that the Courthouse Square project be suspended until <br />the County Commission is functional, the public's questions have been <br />addressed and the project itself is fully detailed. <br />In sum, I believe the Marion County Commission should take on <br />these challenges one step at a time. <br />1. Do not move forward with any part of the Courthouse <br />Square until there are three fully functional members of the County <br />Commission. <br />2. Address each question raised concerning the Courthouse <br />Square in detail during public information and involvement meetings <br />held in each city in Marion County. <br />3. Hold those that have made errors which have shattered the <br />public's trust and confidence accountable. <br />4. Provide Courthouse Square detailed information to the <br />public ranging from cash flow analysis to debt financing structures. <br />And, <br />5. Place the entire Courthouse Square project - as finally <br />designed and priced - before the voters of Marion County for a final <br />decision. I for one am not afraid to have the voters of Marion County <br />decide the fate of the Courthouse Square. It is their money. That is <br />what I believe the residents of Marion County are really seeking. The <br />Courthouse Square has awakened the taxpayer's accountability giant. <br />Let's restore con~dence in our County. Let's empower our <br />voters. Let's answer their questions. Let's ask them for a decision. <br />
