This is what the County Commission is voting on Tomorrow. By Geniusofdespair

Barbara Jordan's resolution on the Marlins Dolphins:
RESOLUTION URGING THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE TO ENACT LEGISLATION TO ENABLE THE COUNTY TO LEVY AN ADDITIONAL PENNY OF PROFESSIONAL SPORTS BED TAX AND PERMIT THE STATE TO GRANT A STATE SALES TAX REBATE FROM THE SALE OF GOODS AND SERVICES AT SUN LIFE STADIUM IN ORDER TO FUND A PORTION OF THE COSTS EXPENDED FOR THE UPGRADE AND MODERNIZATION OF SUN LIFE STADIUM



Please also read my blog below. Same subject: Giving money to a multi-billionaire. Note the hotels on the beach aren't included and the hotels in Broward aren't either. They aren't as dumb as we on the mainland. Note bed and sales tax. Still both are taxes that could be used in better ways. Also note this is not a one time thing, I think it is like 20 years... get the facts.

When we have a superbowl Broward benefits more than Miami Dade as the stadium is on the edge of the county. Where would you rather stay?

We are being used and abused. Let Broward kick in bed tax money. They just want to keep theirs lower than ours because WE WILL LET THEM. Their county commission already said no, they wouldn't even entertain such a funding scam. Will ours cave. You Betcha'.
