Lies From The Wyndham Hotel Study: Part 3

I added a link to the left side bar and linked the series together beginning to end so that you may more easily keep up with Lies From The Wyndham Hotel Study.

Yesterday I sent the following Public Information Request to the City of Greensboro concerning what I discovered on Page 1.


"From Page 1 of the downtown Greensboro Wyndham Hotel Feasibility Study dated December 9, 2013:

"In addition to the work in 2012, we have confirmed that the City of Greensboro has approved two additional significant projects, the $60 million, 3,000 seat, Greensboro Performing Arts Center and the Downtown University Campus site."

The Greensboro City Council did not approve the Greensboro Performing Arts Center until January 2014. And plans for the Downtown University Campus site have yet to be approved.

My questions:

1. How is it possible that an out of town, independent 3rd party, in this case HVS Global Hospitality http://www.hvs.com/ is able to ascertain the outcome of City Council votes that have yet to take place?

2. Being that the Downtown University Campus site has yet to be approved does that not invalidate the feasibility study?

3. With the feasibility study invalidated is the Greensboro City Council not forced to call an emergency session to vote to invalidate the $1.975 Million Dollar Incentive Grant because it was based on a flawed study?

I have posted Page 1 of the study online. By the time some of you read it thousands of people will have already read it.  http://greensboroperformingarts.blogspot.com/2014/03/lies-from-wyndham-hotel-study-part-1.html

Have a nice day.

I await the reply of the City of Greensboro.
