O….K….
Swiftly,,,,,,,,,sounds about right
Kendrick is another shady government official that is nothing more than another Hardie Davis..he’s already done the bait and switch in the tax commissioners office and this pie dream is more of the same..
Approximately a year ago I purchased a 53,000 piece of property .6 Acres on Deans Bridge Road closest house to the mall. Personally I could do without the noise and the lights. Certainly Augusta Richmond County could use the additional tax base. I wonder when did the Republican Party do a feasibility study, or a needs assessment south of the Gordon Highway. In my opinion we don’t need a James Brown Arena between railroad tracks and adjacent to a oil/gas distributorship!
Moses, when you bought property next to the abandoned mall, what quiet, unlit project were you thinking would go on that giant site?
Dream on….
Me thinks the Economic Development Authority has consumed a couple too many ‘shrooms. Notice the “SPIN” Kendrick and Wray are trying to sell !!! The “Meetings” must’ve been ZOOM meetings, since Cardinale has YET to send a representative to ANY meeting, actually held in person, in Augusta, OR at the Regency Mall site.
More lies. Ride by Regency Mall property and you will see there is no activity. Another spin.
Georgia Code Title 22. Eminent Domain § 22-1-9 Condemn it, buy it for fair market value, and sell it to one or more developers who will put their money where there mouth is. Keep Kendrick, the Augusta Economic Development Authority, and the commissioners out of the deal to the maximum extent possible.
There is no public need for the property.
Public need and compliance with laws and procedures are never obstructions to the progressive visionaries in the ARC government. Case is point, The Freedom Bridge.
…case in point…
