« Ethics Lapse | Main | Is this a bribe? » December 27, 2005Downtown YMCA must serve childrenThis AP article details the lawsuit against the Mid TN YMCA by private health clubs. Social engineering is such a messy business. Too darn many unintended consequences. The last sentence below is interesting. "people of all...incomes" sounds pretty inclusive. How could you exclude anyone? "The YMCA of Middle Tennessee must prove that children are allowed to use its Uptown Nashville YMCA facility to maintain its tax-exempt status, a state appeals court has ruled. A law passed by the state Legislature in 2000 clarified that "family wellness centers" are exempt from property taxes. To qualify under that law, an organization must comply with a number of conditions, including having as its purpose "the provision of programs promoting physical, mental and spiritual health on a holistic basis without emphasizing one over another." The organization must also provide all programs and services to people of all ages, incomes and abilities." Comments
There are NO child members of the Downtown Y? Not one Hume Fogg student? When The Clubs open up an East Nashville or Antioch facility...I'll think better of their motives. Posted by: Kay Brooks at December 27, 2005 4:28 PMPost a comment
