Cardinal Properties were handed (given) the $1,000,000.00 lot by EPURA in trade for finished square footage to recover the original investment in the lot. Your very first project, what luck.
Why wasn’t this Estes Parkian invited to be an investor partner? Where and when were all these “details” worked out? How can I get invited to the party?
That my friends is a pretty sweet deal, hand me the property to secure my loan. Lots -O-Profit no risk. Plus you’re doing all this for Us. You guys are real swell.
Fact #3
How can the arts council afford to buy the “promised square footage”, the town trustees are holding all their cash.

Basic rule of thumb boys, in the public sector only those guilty of something respond so adamantly to rumors. Even in a small town.
Fact #5 (more of a question really)
