The recent news that IDB member Chris Ramsey is not a city resident makes me wonder what kind of accountability do these people have to the taxpayers? I've posed the question before: Who is on the board? Since it is such a mystery as to who is on the board and whether they are even legitimately qualified to sit on the board, how can they be trusted to handle millions of taxpayer dollars?
If this board is going to be acting scandalously, let's pull those members into the light and hold them accountable to the taxpayers and the council member that appoint them. As it sits, all actions taken by the IDB are essentially backroom deals made by carefully-selected puppets.
(Editor's Note: IDB members are James Miller, James Woods, Skip Ireland, Ray Adkins, Chris Ramsey and Breege Farrell. If Mr. Ramsey no longer serves, that makes two vacancies.)
