Judge locks GUEA assets
The Post-Tribune of Northwest Indiana carries an article titled, “State seeks control of GUEA.”
State officials should control the estimated $10 million in assets of the scandal-plagued Gary Urban Enterprise Association, state Attorney General Steve Carter said Monday.
Carter’s office filed a lawsuit against the not-for-profit group to block the sale or transfer of any GUEA property. The group’s official status as an enterprise zone expired Sept. 8, said Indiana Economic Development Commission spokesman Weston Sedgewick.
Meanwhile Northwest Indiana News reports “Judge lock’s agency’s assets, for now.” The assets of the Gary Urban Enterprise Association are protected for the time being with a temporary restraining order granted Tuesday in Marion County Circuit Court.
