Jackson Jambalaya

I’m sure Chokwe will call Ashby a racist and blame NE Jackson republicans for bringing this up.

I would bet that he is the “only” one wanting to discuss this subject. I am also pretty sure HIZ HONOR the mayor would like to “veto” this item for discussion.

Believe me, I will believe any and everything Ashby Foote says before Lamumba’s B.S. Ashby went through the 4 year program at the United States Military Academy and served very honorably after that. He is ALWAYS fighting an uphill battle with this council. He is the only hope for Jackson, but he is fighting an almost impossible uphill battle to save what is left of Jackson.

I noticed #46 on the agenda is for funding the underused Grand Gulf nuclear plant. Why build the Soul City Solar facility when the projected thousands of homes to be powered could use the existing energy plant?…just asking…I realize this has nothing to do with rent at Smith-Wills…

Who's responsible for the sewage leak at the eastern edge of the parking lot adjacent to the stadium?
I would report the issue to JXN Water but they might fix the problem thereby rendering the city "less black".

1) Foote's attempt to discuss the non-payment of the rents will more than likely attempt to be moved to Executive Session by none other than the weak link on the Council - Honerable Virgie Lindsey. HizHonor certainly does not want this to be discussed in 'public' and moving to Executive Session has been his MO since day one; Virgie who doesn't like confrontation or having to take a stand has been his sidekick on these motions. If they succeed, we'll likely never hear HizHonor's explanation for the missing rent payments.

2) to 2;19 - get over it. Yes, there is a Grand Gulf. There are several other generation facilities both for Entergy and for other power suppliers. The City Council of Jackson MS has nothing to do with Grand Gulf other than to get a part of the tax revenue from the installation. GC has been producing for quite some time, but the need for electrical generation has grown. Just because GC exists, and it exists in Mississippi, has absolutely NOTHING to do with the solar farm you and your neighbors abhor so much. Want to argue; stick to things that make sense and matter. Otherwise, go back to eating your Cheetos and drinking your Koolaid.

3( yes 2:57, call JxnWater.. They might actually fix the problem, something Baby Chock never attempted to do or after bankrupting the system had the funds to do. Even though stopping the raw doodoo from running down the street might make the city less black; it will at least make it not quite as chocklate brown.

Yup. That is how Virgi operates. Mayor can always rely on her to close the doors.

Virgi is absolutely terrible and a liar. I voted for her but I will never again make that mistake. She speaks out of ignorance or just makes facts up.

2:19, who cares? Its private money building that solar farm on private land.

It will be interesting to see if Virgi even says one word during the Smith-Wills "discussion".

Time for a Citizen’s FOIA request for all documents pertaining to the rental of SM stadium parking lot.

Attn. Mr. Foote. Sell your house and move to Madison, The City. You will be absolutely amazed at your upgrade in your life style. You have tried and done everything you can to save the dying, if not already dead city of Jackson. You will be welcomed with open arms.

Mr. Stokes told a reporter on WAPT today that when people get arrested they call the mayor. He described the mayor as "a control freak."

@7:49
Ashby lives in a very high end area with physicians lawyers and business owners. He’s fine there with the RHC and country club crowd hotty totty. JA and Jackson prep neighborhood of his. He owns a business in Madison county though as do many of his fellow neighbors

Mayors comments on recording that the Jxn water takeover was a ploy to make the city less black, really? I guess he is accusing Biden then as that is where the funding came from. This is Total Ignorance & Incompetence on his part if he thinks State of MS taxpayers enjoy paying more tax $$ while he turned his back and blind eye to ALL COJ a residents no matter what their RACE was! BS I say!

1. City of Jackson (nor it's council) has nothing to do with Grand Gulf.

2. 'He (Foote) owns a business in Madison county though as do many of his fellow neighbors'

Do tell. Which business?

White guilt Virgi's arms must be getting very tired carrying Chowke's water.

@ 7:29
I know Ashby has a business in Madison county and it’s a financial planning company. Also harmony dental a plastic surgeon, mattice that has renaissance and owner Yates of coattails plus many or majority of sports medicine doctors as well as CSpire family and Madison co developer Bailey as well as lost rabbit developer all live in City of Jackson and craddock family as well blue sky owners.

@2:19 - #46 is for funding RECEIVED from grand gulf, not sent. Try to keep up.

sitcom

I read this for amusement only now.

Anyone that thinks Chuck or Virgi will be anything today other than the hot trash they have demonstrated themselves to be repeatedly, is silly.

Based on similarly upsetting voting patterns from the City (that are sad and reliable) they both also seem confident they will be reelected.

Patterns of crappy leaders and patterns of crappy voter choices are no bueno.

Can someone translate this post?

11:33: Back in the day we used to place guys like 8:11 on a 72 hour hold in the Psych ward when they babbled like that. The Psych guys could release them and take responsibility for springing them back on the general public after a thorough evaluation, in order to protect the public as much as possible.

Maybe they can get some advice from the city leaders of Dolton, Illinois.
