  1. Again, Why isn’t Liily investing manufacturing operations in the
    Indianapolis area??

    Plenty of room in the in the new Boone County developmental area.

    The city and state must be much more aggressive with incentives to
    keep Lilly investing in the Indianapolis area.

    1. I am happy to see they are adding on to an already existing campus instead of destroying prime farm ground and bulldozing houses. I am a Boone Co resident and am on the front lines of what this is doing to our community. For Lilly’s proposed campus, the IEDC is requesting that a vital county road be vacated. This road is an artery for county residents to get into town. But most importantly, this road provides safe passage for farmers moving tractors, combines, and equipment. The only other route options if this road is closed are state highways and I-65. State highways are incredibly dangerous for slow moving vehicles. There have been many fatalities of farmers in Boone Co and Ag communities all over the country due to unsafe routes, such as state highways. The IEDC has no right to put the wishes of corporations over public safety in our communities.

    2. BR –
      Your ties to the land and protecting it are admirable.
      But there would be no progress if there are no sacrifices.
      The Indianapolis area will either grow or wither.

      We need these high tech manufacturing jobs for the sake of future generations.
      Our young people will not and can not stay if jobs and economic development
      are not forth coming.
