>From the Meleah Maynard CP article about the Holman Redevelopment Project
http://www.citypages.com/databank/22/1086/article9831.asp This article portrays Cherryhomes at the Center of this -- and a very smelly bidding process that is kept out of public view. Lisa McDonald comes out of the article looking quite positive. From the article: "It seems to me when you spend government money, whether it's federal or state, there is a responsibility level for openness that goes with that," McDonald continues. "The public has a right to know how their money is being spent. If our city leaders structured a deal to hide details from the public, then that's unacceptable and they should be called on that." Cherryhomes insists that she had no idea the deal was private. "This was very informative to me," she says. "I was not aware that mixed-finance agreements meant documents would be private." ================================================= With the phone logs CP reports from Cherryhomes office, this statement strains credulity. Ironically many of the folks that benefited from this also donated to Cherryhomes campaign.
