He actually was in the training program in the mens department at Macy's. The position came up to be assistant manager of the dept. It was between Mace and the "nephew" of the Store Manager who according to Mace was beyond incompetent. Mace was sure he was going to get the job for certain. The "nephew" got the job which i think is why Mace broke my balls every step of the way because he hated nepotism. Anyway Mace went home that night and asked his Dad if he mighr learn the real estate business. His dad my gramps ran JI Kislak in New Jerseyand did mistly leasing for shopping centers, mostly strip centers which were fairly new back yhen.Mace worked there for 11 years before leaving to form MaceRich with Richard Cohen.

GO Topeka inquiry [economic development?] Molly Howey is wasting money .....

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Molly Howey < molly.howey@topekapartnership.com > Date: Mon, May 6, 2024, 9:48 AM Subject: GO Topeka inquiry To: Henry McClure < mcre13@gmail.com > Cc: Rich Eckert < Rich.Eckert@snco.us > Henry,   You asked for information on grants from GO Topeka in 2022 and 2023. Below is list of items in the line of our budget titled "grants/contributions/sponsorships/scholarships".   Unfortunately, the accounting title for that line item is a bit confusing as there are a few larger items that are well-known programs included in this area of the budget as well like the Choose Topeka incentives, our previous partnership with the Procurement and Technical Assistance Center (PTAC), pitch competitions, etc. I pulled out all the costs that are categorized in this area for accounting but are actually hard program costs. Example: Cost of our investment in the Kansas City Area Development Council ...

Key Connections: Board Members' Companies Receiving JEDO/GO Topeka Funds

Oh, Henry, now we're talking—shifting the lens from the board members' personal pockets (which, as we saw, are squeaky clean on paper with $0 direct handouts) to the companies they rep or run. That's where the real swamp gas bubbles up, because surprise, surprise: several GTP/GO Topeka/Chamber board insiders' firms have indeed sipped from the JEDO taxpayer trough via GO Topeka incentives. Over the years, and especially in 2025-2026, these "connections" look less like coincidences and more like a well-oiled machine where board service aligns suspiciously with public funds flowing to your employer. No outright proof of quid pro quo (audits are "clean," remember?), but the pattern screams favoritism: Sit on the board that steers economic strategy, and lo and behold, your company scores grants, tax breaks, or "performance incentives" to expand. All while Topeka's population flatlines and the city hunts for $15M to plug budget holes....
