$6,142,49: Mayor Gahan Must Just Be Swimming in Money

It happens every year – the Indiana Attorney General issues a press release reminding residents to check for unclaimed property being held by the State of Indiana. The City of New Albany has literally dozens of unclaimed checks and credits and thousands of dollars sitting idle, albeit safely.

Something is wrong, though, when an administration that promises to make our city “fundamentally better” can’t keep better track of monies owed to it.
