Thank you,
Dani Petermann

Thank you for joining us last week to discuss the Bluegrass Area
Development District’s (BGADD) plans for the former Excepticon
property on Trent Blvd. Please find a draft version of the meeting
minutes attached.

As expressed by Councilmember George Myers during the meeting, our
office cannot be responsible for managing or answering questions from
residents about the BGADD’s proposed activities in the neighborhood.
However, many of you voiced concerns that your questions were not
asked during the meeting. With this in mind, we feel it will be most
efficient to facilitate the first round of questions. Please email me
any questions you would like to have answered by Wednesday, February
15 so that I may compile and send them to the BGADD for clarification.

If you would like to join the Tatesbrook distribution list and already

an email expressing your interest and I will ask the Tatesbrook
leadership to add your name.

Statement from Councilmember George Myers regarding the BGADD’s
program proposal:

“After Lenny Stoltz’s appearance at the January 31st meeting with the
River Park and Tatesbrook residents, I have serious concerns as to
whether Mr. Stoltz and the Bluegrass ADD can implement his program and
manage the property in a manner that is respectful, dignified and
consistent with the values and norms of us who live in this
community. Our office is going to be reaching out to the Bluegrass
Area Development District’s Board of Directors to express our concerns
with their process and to request an approach that is more
collaborative and mindful of the community’s concerns. I do not think
this program can be successful without the board members being
involved directly with the residents of the community.”

Please feel free to contact me if you have additional questions.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Chatterton, MBA & MA
Legislative Aide to George Myers
