  5. What a joke! This report is worthless and doesn’t address issues such as economic displacement and growth assumptions.

    Totally worthless, actually a fraud! They might as well have hired Cordish or Mike Burke to write the report!

  7. They put a nice polish on this TIF turd. But if it's all so great why does Sly and the gang keep crying that there's not enough money to pay for basic services; so we have to raise taxes again and again and again and then sell bonds and then increase the sales tax.......

  9. Just a few days ago the Showmeinstitute, as referenced on TKC, published a report, using city data, that shows an entirely different picture. Must be becasue the city did not pay them $350,000.

    This report left out the impact of the 25 million anally tourists.
