What education, training or skills does Lewis have to be a HR director?? How can she be council president while working such a distance out of the city?? This move shows she is much more like her buddy "mayor" Ryan Vaughn and that she is using elected office for personal gain and not public service. Very bad move and shows her true colors.

Gary, I am a liberal Democrat. I don't necessarily agree with everything you publish on this site, but I do appreciate that you take the time to inform citizens of the shenanigans as well as the seedy underworld of Indiana politics. Again, this is just another sad news story that we residents just won't find in the local mainstream news media.

I've never been impressed with Maggie Lewis. I think she is way out of her league. I'm also dissapointed that another public official has - once again - been bought by big gaming.

You're clueless as usual, Indy Dem. This blog was virtually the only media source that made an issue of Vaughn's conflict of interest in sheparding the parking meter privatization deal through the council.

Anonymous, your facts are off. First of all, Maggie did work for Dove, and they did get public money but she was never on the panel that made that call. 2nd of all, if you really want to see what a conflict of interest looks like, and you probably said nothing when this was going on, but take a look at the former council president who passed out of council the Parking Meter deal by a single vote, while he was a registered lobbyist for the company who got the contract. Just wanted to make sure you know what a real conflict looks like.

Darn, I didn't know they were hiring for that position. I would have liked to apply for it.

Here's their open and recently open positions:

Lewis has been working as the executive director of the Dove Recovery House in Indianapolis for the last several years, which has posed a conflict of interest insofar as it relies on city grants for part of its funding.
