I Love it when a plan comes together
I am so fortunate to have Mike Opat represent me on the Hennepin County Board. What a beautiful plan he put together to buy a new stadium for billionaire Carl Pohlad. After eschewing the Free Market and circumventing Democracy, we're now in phase 3 of his master plan: steal the land as Tracy recounts.
Phase 4 will be to exempt the project from any delays from Environmental Impact Statements, reviews by the Planning Commission and Watershed District, Building and Occupancy Permits, and the usual soil preparation and erosion control construction requirements.
Phase 5 will be to stick the taxpayers with the cost overruns from the above.
And phase 6 will have Mr. Opat and Prime Minister Pawlenty standing on home plate at the opener to take a bow.
