I vote no, big freaking deal. Soccer fields? Seriously, who cares. There are bigger issues needing to be discussed. Ah hell, maybe you should vote yes. I can just hang out at the soccer fields and try to bone hot soccer moms who hate their rich husbands.

So just because I don't think economic development is the responsibility of the govt. I don't know about this issue? The "Vote Yes" money for this deal came from the group selling the land and who owns a bunch of the land around it. If this is such a grand deal why don't they build it all themselves and take all the profit? Why? Simple. If it doesn't work they'll be out a bunch of money. Unless, of course, they find a way to get YOU to pay for it.

Vote no for everything-it makes it easier that way.

I voted no (in the CP poll). Since I have no idea what the issue is, does that skew the results?

I voted No because only the snooty rich JC brats can afford to play on it. Of course I don't get a vote, but if I did, I would vote NO!

Do you realize the group that owns this land and the land around it would make more if the land was sold to businesses for retail development?

LMAO

so you would vote "NO" for the people of johnson county to pay for fields for their kids to play on??

nice of you to want to decide how other people spend their money.


btw - the question is losing pretty bad

What's the issue?

I gave up and looked it up.

“Shall the following be adopted? Shall the Johnson County Park and Recreation District issue general obligation bonds in an amount not to exceed $75,000,000 to acquire land for park purposes within the boundaries of Unified School District No. 229, Johnson County, State of Kansas (Blue Valley School District), and to develop thereon soccer fields, training and community facilities, concessions, restrooms, general maintenance facilities and all related appurtenances, all pursuant to K.S.A. 19-2862j, K.S.A. 19-2874 and K.S.A. 10-101 et seq.?”

So 75 million dollar soccer fields? I should've voted no.

Shouldn't they be investing money in football? I don't like where this country is headed sometimes.

Thats worth a YES vote!!

Man, I'm voting no on that. You could build a lot of football fields for that money.

JC can SUCK IT!

They're selling the land for the soccer park at over $150k/acre. The other surrounding land they own will go WAAAAY up in value once you and I paid for the soccer park. Unless it flopped, in which case it wouldn't have hurt them a bit.

I say again, if it's such a brilliant idea and such a great money maker then come talk to me, I may invest. Privately.
