Councilman John Cranley, Elkington's biggest supporter on City Council, said the remarks were unacceptable. Elkington made the remarks last month.John Cranley knows one thing better than anyone: when to cut your losses and go with "popular" opinion.
"Let me say in unequivocal terms - and I know I speak for all of council - that I condemn the statements made by Mr. Elkington at the Over-the-Rhine chamber luncheon," Cranley said.
He seemed to satisfy the crowd when he said City Council "has no intention of putting Mr. Elkington under contract with the city."
CityBeat was mentioned again in the Enquirer article. That is amazing. Twice in about a week.
Cranley still wants Elkington to come to town and develop McMain street. I hope his role is limited. I also hope we get a new Chinese-American owned business on Main Street as soon as possible.
