The Federal Government was on WLTH Radio this morning and said the only money the region will be getting is to tear Gary down & build industrial parks and the region will have to work together on accomplishing the task and set in motion a real plan for the future before any federal dollars are coming to the region.
He talked about all the undeveloped land by I-94 and all the ruins strong along there.
He talked about Gary has 22 miles of undeveloped lakefront .
He said Gary will not be getting any funding other than to tear down the ruins.
He said the region will not be getting any funding unless they join forces with Gary to come up with a plan to fix Gary.
He said Gary was going to have to work with the region and they don't care if Gary & the region goes bankrupt they will still not come in and give any assistance.
The Obama administrator said they want to help those that help themselves and they see Gary and the region as still doing business as usual and there are other cities and towns who are moving in the right direction who will be receiving the federal help that the region should be getting.
He reiterated several times and said he was trying to be blunt as he could he was told to come to the region and deliver the message and he was here all last week delivering it. You did not know did you ? Tony Walker said he will be rebroadcasting his show.
