It wrong when the vast majority of the citizens do not want a Hotel in their city
Why?

Noone elected Shelton on the platform of "We gonna build a fricking hotel in the middle of your goddammed bedroom community so I can get rich and all my developer biddies who contributed to my campaign can get paid SON"
So if Holiday Inn Express wanted to build a unit at the Corner of Sullivan and Greenwell Springs people would be opposed?

We fricking voted for him so he would use the tax revenue to provide services for the city
You'd like to think a small hotel would add to the tax base; thus lowering taxes for others there in Central.

That is really it. If you gave Central the chance to be a ISD without incorporating we would have done it without a second thought tbh,.
Now you're making sense.

TO answer your questions posed to my post.
Re: Why
--Because most of the citizens there are nimbys. And that is not a bad thing 99% of the time. It is a great quiet city that everyone was super happy with . The was not having control of our schools. We got that. Our schools are fricking awesome for being a public school in EBR Parish. That is all we want. We do not want more tourist events. We do not want a population explosion of any kind.
I know that is backwards, but it is a super conservative place that people want to just being able to disappear to when they clock out. The hotel and other "ideas"to expand the city are just fricking dumb. Central needs to be who it is.
