And what a wonderful review it could be.

Better than chocolate, no doubt. Maybe now they'll be forced to talk about how the many projections still being used to justify ORBP were wrong. Maybe now we can at least start talking about increasing public mobility instead of how best to appease narrow, chamber of commerce interests. I fully expect the usual suspects to try to rush and limit the scope but a full, transparent review is warranted, if for no other reason than to combat the ruthless propaganda foisted on the region by 1Si and GLI. Watch for River Fields to take its usual to-hell-with-downtown position as well.

Still, it's an opening, and one that should be used to the public's advantage. It's also one heck of an issue to be addressed very specifically in the upcoming New Albany mayoral election.
