to the people who have the power to elect them to office. A couple years ago, I attended a political forum and one of the candidates

sat at my table. He said he hoped he’d be home before American Idol started. And that was when I realized that “politicians” are real people, too.

In May, we’ll be electing the people who will make decisions about what’s best for the city of Logansport for the next four years.

We’ll elect a mayor, seven council members and a clerk-treasurer.

We’re not choosing “politicians.” We’re choosing residents just like ourselves who have chosen to take on the task of trying to do what’s best for our city with a limited budget.

An update from Japan

At the April 4 Logansport City Council meeting, Mayor Mike Fincher shared the following letter from the former mayor of Mibu, Hideyo Shimizu.These are his remarks following the March 11 earthquake and tsunami. Logansport officials have been exploring the possibility of a sister city relationship with Mibu.

Dear Mayor Mike Fincher, I express my heartfelt thanks to you for sending a letter of your sympathy.

This March, a powerful earthquake measuring magnitude 9.0 hit nortern Japan (Tohoku and Kanto district).

Coastal towns and cities were devastated by ensuing tsunami (tidal wave).

This earthquake is said to be the biggest ever recorded in the world. So very strong temors were felt in the wide area of northern and neastern Japan.

This time its damage was catastrophic.

In Tochigi prefecture, much damage were casue by massive earthquake but in my town (Mibu) we are all save and have received little damage.

Please let the people of your city know that we are all safe and making a living as usual. And also please let them know how we are grateful for their sympathy.

Very truly yours, Hideyo Shimizu

“It’s incredible what’s happened in the last thirty days,” Logansport Economic Development Foundation president Nolan “Skip” Kuker told the LEDF board during their March 18 meeting.

Since then, five companies have committed to invest more than $8.5 million dollars in Cass County. A $5,675,000 investment at The Anderson’s Clymers ethanol facility will include a corn oil extraction system, as well as manufacturing equipment upgrades. Kuker says Logansport Machine is investing $634,000 in new equipment, ABC Metals is investing $468,000 in real estate to build a 12,000 sq ft. building addition that will house an investment of $620,000 in new equipment and Small Parts will purchase $1,200,000 in new equipment. Ohio-based Eby Trailers broke ground March 28 on a $568,000 building that will house a sales and service facility.

Kuker appeared before the city and county councils with representatives from each company. The county council unanimously approved the tax abatements for four years for The Ander-

son’s and eight years for Eby Trailers. The Logansport City Council unanimously approved the abatement for Logansport Machine for a period of five years. Abatement for ABC Metals, Inc. was approved on a 6-0 vote with Councilman Brannon Meagher abstaining. Abatement for Small Parts, Inc. was approved on a 5-1 vote.

Councilman Kerry “Worly” Worthington voted against the Small Parts tax abatement and Councilman Brannon Meagher abstained.

Kuker says that the abatements allow companies to invest thousands of dollars but gives them a tax break. The companies will see their taxes phased in over the period of the abatements.

County Council president Ralph Anderson describes tax abatement as a tool for the county to attract business to expand productivity.

Anderson says that while the county won’t see tax revenue from the business for the first year, it allows the business to get income coming in and increase employment, which also increases the tax base.
