JUST IN: The Alameda County Board of Supervisors voted in support of funding a new ballpark for the Oakland Athletics at Howard Terminal. kron4.com/mlb/as/alameda…
@kron4news Means taxpayers will fund rich man’s toys. A’s owner is worth several billion $. Tax district better be high income earners only. Disgusted. Means nothing to them but A’s just lost a lifetime fan. Get real - taxes would be better used hiring quality pitching. #OaklandAthletics
@Hope_A_Johnson @kron4news Read the article “The tax district collects the city’s share of property taxes generated from the project for 45-years to cover (housing) a construction costs. 3 things separate Oakland from A’s proposal for new stadium No public funds would be used to build or operate the park.
@Hope_A_Johnson @kron4news Haha! Literally laughed out loud when I read that tax dollars would be better used for quality pitching. It’s funny, cause it’s true.
