Prevent eminent domain of Gary Indiana small business.

The Issue

Nations is a new cross cultural restaurant and entertainment venue located at 624 Broadway Gary IN.  Its a historic building in a historic district of downtown Gary IN, a business renovated and started with private money by a local citizen John Allen.  The Gary Housing Authority director Julian Marsh Jmarsh@garyhousing.org  is seeking law suit to take the business for a "subsidized housing development" in which the GHA claims will not break ground for 3 years.  Please support us and stop the GHA from seizing this property for  an alleged PROJECT THAT HAS NO FORMAL approved funding and includes another private investor who is not a municipality or agent thereof. The housing authority should not be doing commercial development and or using eminent domain for anything other than public use and housing only. For more information call 219-716-0700, thank you.
