SHE WON'T GO!
“30 to 60 days” is the new “Friedman Unit”, as we’ve mentioned before. And today, Webb lawyer Darby Turner issued yet another “Webb Unit”:
Turner said he was hopeful that work toward a permit to allow excavation and later a building permit could begin in earnest within the next 30 to 60 days, though he readily admitted that was the same timeframe his client, Dudley Webb, has been quoting for “quite some period of time.”
Funny, they are even aware that their bullshit is transparently bullshit, but they don’t even care anymore.
Oh, and the big news of the article is that they got the Courthouse Area Design Review Board to give them another YEAR EXTENSION. Why?
Still not comprehending why CentrePointe‘s developers were seeking an extension so far in advance of their permit’s expiration and why it could not wait until the October meeting, CentrePointe‘s counsel Darby Turner told the Design Review Board: “One of the issues that causes us to move forward at this time is to give assurance to our investor that our project is still doable in Lexington.”
Jeebus.
What Darby means to say is “we have absolutely no one who is willing to put up the money for this boondoggle, so we need to make it more attractive for our fruitless efforts to actually find a single investor”
And despite board chair Michael Meusser’s harsh words towards the Webbs, the Newberry appointed board of course went right along with whatever the Webbs want:
“I don’t believe this action makes any sense relative to the way this ordinance is drafted,” Meusser said. “It’s clear that the ordinance contemplates that there is a year period in which to commence work and if work isn’t commenced within (that) period they have to reapply. And it just doesn’t make any sense to me either that the applicant or that the entity or this board that we reissue these permits at this time.”
Despite concerns of the board the permit was extended through July 8 of 2010, with a 2-0 vote. Board member Bill Henkel was nearly inaudible to those in attendance at the meeting with his vote in favor of granting the new permit. As chair, Meusser was only able to vote in the event of a tie which their wasn’t as Henkel voted in favor along with the other member in attendance, Anthony Wright.
Newberry’s Lexingwebbington, hard at work, once again…

They _might_ apply for an excavation permit in 60 days? You're right, they're not even trying anymore.

Does anyone have any pics of the CentrePit post soil-fill & grass seeding? For some reason I'm imagining a slightly less deep, bare dirt hole.
