Several readers have asked why there has been no official statement from John Elkington on the death of a Sheffield police officer. After all, Elkington has commented several times how important the City on the Bluff is to him.
Looking back, the Memphis businessman has not mentioned Sheffield or Inspiration Landing on his Facebook page since August 29th. Those who live nearby have reported seeing no new work in progress at IL.
The Slag Yard's official Facebook page has been taken down. No lawsuits have yet been filed, but we have no idea what the current legal situation is between the venue's Mississippi owner and its Tennessee developer.
What does the Sheffield City Council say? Publicly, nothing. We hear there are questions being asked in private. Shouldn't these questions have been asked months, or even years ago?
