    King Edward - Get to the details and act on it

    After years of talk — and procrastination — on renovating the old King Edward Hotel in Jackson, Mayor Frank Melton's ultimatum to his staff to do something in 30 days is a much-needed approach to getting something done.

    It is distressing to learn that with investors and developers ready with a plan, the city itself apparently had not followed through on applying for a grant to the federal department of Housing and Urban Development for environmental cleanup and assessment of the property.

    While a potential developer had thought the city was to apply for the grant last fall, nothing has been done. An administration spokesman said the application was to be delivered to HUD Monday.
    Melton's threat to do something in 30 days or tear it down is probably just that because it would take action by the Council and other legal hurdles.

    However, the push to the city's own personnel to get on with it is a welcomed and overdue action.

    A $35 million plan for apartments, retail space and a restaurant in the historic old building is on the table awaiting city action. If it's achieved, the city would benefit mightily.

    Melton is right. It is time to get it done. If not, it is time to tear it down. It is too much of an eyesore as it is.

    Well well. It looks like Johnson was so busy touting the revitalization of downtown and the King Edward in his campaign that he forgot to have his staff actually apply for the HUD grant to hold up the city's end of the bargain.

    Sheesh!

    The rich pigeons need to share their beautiful building with the poor pigeons

    Pigeons have feeling too, just like the chickens.

    Surely HUD must have a relocation program for them.

    Starting out as a party free of corruption, the DPP has recently been overwhelmed by the opposition's unrelenting criticism of its failings (Diamond Necklace). So much so, that it seems the DPP is riddled by scandals. Deal only with companies you are familiar with (wedding rings, anniversary rings) or offer some sort of reliability rating on their site.

    A newspaper in Iran is now holding a cartoon contest called iran holocaust cartoons. Iran made Holocaust denial government policy when Iran foreign minister Manouchehr Mottaki said in December that remarks made by the Iran president that the Nazi mass murder of Jews during World War II was a myth.
