City of Bellemeade

Discussed X 1000, but never answered.  Are the homeowners responsible and, consequently liable, or not!?!?  Mayor, answer the question.

According to my neighbors, prior to this year,  Bellemeade has spent thousands of dollars paying a landscape company to cut the grass in part of that Metro right of way between the Bellemeade entrance and Wood Road and is currently spending thousands more to plant low-growing trees to replace the goal-post trees that were cut down in the past year.  Why is that if Metro has control over the right of way?  Why is our Belleeade money being used to "beautify" a Metro right of way?

Also, who voted to use the grant money to connect the U of L sidewalk to the Moorgate entrance?  Metro City Council?  No!  Bellemeade City Commission did.  Mayor, you owe those folks an apology first for failing to get their feelings BEFORE the Commission voted, and now a personal visit.  They are YOUR constituents!!!!

This has NOT been discussed for two years.   it's not been in the minutes..nor have notices been sent to residents.  Bellmeade isn't committed for funds NOW but we will be for the future, and ALL citizens should be notified of the plan to spend $ for this.  We're gonna end up looking like Dixie Hwy or Preston Hwy......each have sidewalks up and down.  Nobody in this neighborhood walks up and down shelbyville rd.   It's going to encourage foot traffic thur here, and we think we have a problem now.  just wait.

there are all kinds of issues with sidewalks.  and it deserves more of YOUR attention, and further discussion, then to just give Mr Ackerson what he wants.   His best interest is NOT in the City of Bellemeade

Ladies and Gentlemen, Reverend Mayor Larry Lea Odom-Groh is simply not going to answer your questions as legitimate as they are.  He is not responsible to us; we are just lowly citizens far beneath HRH's position.  He has three, YES THREE, more years on his term and he could care less what you think unless you agree with him, but that is hard to do because what he thinks fluctuates wildly.

Why are there only 3 candidates for the 4 City Commission seats?  Has the private website stiffled public interest in the government of Bellemeade or have people become disillusioned?
