Indiana Barrister: Political Potpourri Part II

Indiana Barrister:

"Stadium View
Republican County Councilor Ike Randolph is calling on the city to give up its luxury suites at the RCA Dome, Lucas Oil Stadium, Conseco and Victory Field House. In a news release issued Thursday afternoon Randolph said the private sector should pay for such accommodations, not the public sector. He also says with the operations costs for Lucas Oil Stadium slated to run nearly $10 million annually over budget, the city should not pay for luxury seating. At best Randolph says the city should sublease the suites. He is also filing a freedom of information request with Mayor Bart Peterson's office to find out how much the city has spent on the suites at the Dome, Conseco and Victory Field since 2000."
