Geez. Why would anyone who lives here want to subsidize a for-profit private property owner with $30 million of public funds because, on paper anyway, we will break even sometime in the next century?
The contractors, plumbers, electricians and unions are in favor of it, because of the lucrative jobs it will bring them. But seriously, if you're a taxpayer, this rip-off should really piss you off. I mean the audacity of it!!
And notice, they always promise how many "Union" jobs will come to our community out of this. But even that is not guaranteed. They could be just another set of low-paying jobs well below a living wage. And don't forget how much fun a lot more traffic will bring to our quality of life.
Such a deal!!
