--Am I to infer that you have an objection? It is a very innovative way to finance such construction, and for 30 years, is a very good deal for the city....... --

well the new stadiums here might be a good deal for the city but they're certainly not a good deal for the average taxpayer who is stuck with the bills.

also, ask the hotel and restaraunt owners what they think of the stadium taxes.

if the stadium can't be built without tax dollars, it shouldn't be built at all.

these corporate interests paying to have stadiums named after them are foisting some of the hidden costs off on the locals.
