Comment on Downtown Nugget Project takes another step forward. Some residents nervous. by Joe Childs
Talk about putting the cart before the horse! I really wish that my elected representatives would do what they were tasked to do- represent their constituents. They are getting ready to saddle very man woman and child that lives in Carson City with an $900+ debt without inviting meaningful public discussion and/or explaining the mechanics of the deal.
It appears that the Supervisors have once again been smooth talked by the “Office of Business Development” – the same department that is responsible for many hundreds of thousands of dollars in questionable payments to downtown merchants, several million in payments to the lucky buyer of the old Walmart and of course, the multi-year, money losing skating rink. The Business Development Department has acted like a drunken sailor in port for too long. While I can’t slight the Supervisors for being willing to put me in debt to make Carson City a better place to live, I think they are making a poor choice in who they are listening too- There are better ways to spend $45 million dollars!
