FW Mayor Buys Conflict of Interest…or Condo

From the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette:

Mayor Tom Henry might become one of Harrison Square’s first tenants.

Henry handed over a $1,000 refundable deposit Wednesday, making him No. 55 on the list interested in buying one of the 62 condominiums at The Harrison.

Henry said he and his wife, Cindy, are interested in downsizing from their 3,800-square-foot home and it made sense to look at a project where the city will invest millions of dollars. He said he was unsure whether the couple would move to the building but said this wasn’t just a publicity stunt.

Um hmmmmm, and it’s not a conflict of interest either.  For those not in Fort Wayne, this project is highly controversial and, as the Blogmeister understands it, is some form of city-private development started by the former administration and inherited by Mayor Henry.  Still, does this really look so good to opponents?
