The name was initially to throw a bone to Arshot if they would support this rather than a race track. The name will likely change so it's nothing to get hung up on. As far as the partners - the project was developed by researchers at Ohio State and it has been presented to ODA and has their support, albeit informally at this early idea stage. The only potential partner on the list that has not been approached yet is the City.
I like the idea of integrating the community into the mix with job training and placement.okay, so this sort of confirms what I was suggesting- an idea has been hatched, and parties have been "approached" but these are far from solidified relationships. Calling them partners seems premature. All and all, the portrayal of this project to this point kind of doesn't pass the smell test.
What's your smell test? Where is the error in "potential partners"? What, exactly, would you reasonably expect from a one-pager? Or is this a game of gotcha? I'm not sure what you are implying.
The extent of the idea is at the level of what was provided in the 2005 redevelopment study. For the project to warrant more effort, I would imagine the current option would first need to expire.
