A group I'm involved with is working with Eric on this issue. I haven't been his biggest fan but thus far he's done a good job working behind the scenes on this. Ultimately I don't see a vehicle for a long term solution that KC Tennants wants. The best is to continue to develop the urban core and have make deals with developers to include some affordable units but we can't just keep passing 50 mil here 50 mil there for affordable housing because like I asked what happens to those folks in a year or 2?
I don't support tax incentives for developers but the reality the new stadium will pass and all housing down around the stadium is going to be ridiculously priced. I won't be voting for the new stadium but people should realize that's what's going to come with the new stadium
