[StBernard] St. Bernard Parish scraps redevelopment plans for Village Square tract

[Westley Annis]

  >Councilmen George Cavignac and Wayne Landry had pushed to use the
  >Village Square land as a site for the parish's first post-Katrina
hospital.

I don't know JFR, but when the Gang of Two wants it this badly and then got
themselves
appointed to the Hospital Board, **that** makes me suspicious.

	Once again it appears that greed is raising its ugly head.  At this
point,
	why can't parish government use their legal authority to condemn
properties
	and/or cite owners and get commitments for redevelopment, rather
than let
	this rat-infested embarrassment continue to exist.  From my own
perspective,
	I thought (and still think) that Village Square is the perfect
location for
	the new hospital. - But then again, I cannot understand how the
parish can
	remotely consider having Oshner come in and take over.  Where were
they
	after the storm.  We owe it to the current operators, who have a
PROVEN
	history of success in their hospital endeavors, to continue what
they have
	started.  I am sure that there is a lot more going on behind doors
that I
	don't know about, so it would be nice to see an article of facts
(not
	opinions) as to the entire Village Square and Hospital fiasco's.
