Nothing to do with baseball. The development is $20 million over budget and all the original anchor tenants have pulled out because it is not viable. It was forced down the tax payers throats.
We "loser"taxpayers have been down this rabbit hole before with several other failed ventures by city and county councils.All of the family planned housing in Bull street has been scrapped because it is located in the worst performing school district in the city and state. No family with young children will commit to moving there. That's why the only tenant they can find is a nursing home. I'm all for minor league baseball, but don't make me pay for it. Benjamin promised us a 29million dollar stadium development,and it cost 42mil and counting.
My three go to Flora. Richland 1 is more corrupt than city council.
On that, yes, we can agree. But still, Richland One is NOT anything to write home about. No one is fighting to get their kids into the schools.
You're exactly right, I am Stupid. When your District One kids travel around to the other districts to play sports and you see all the different schools and their facilities, your jaw drops. We get nothing in return for the one of the highest taxable income bases in the state. Utterly ridiculous. Move to the Lake while you can!! Chapin Lexington and Riverbluff laugh at us.
Westwood is not diverse? Have you ever been to the school. Uneducated comment from the peanut gallery.
Which is saying a lot. I thought it was bad when I was in school. It's horrible now.
So our roads are in disrepair because of a low gas tax. Please tell me why there was no repair for the last 5-10 years and exactly where did the road maintenance money go? Just like schools the politicians always need more money and no results.
I didn't want the team there because I wanted them to stay in Savannah at historic Grayson Stadium. Miss going to games there.
