I know most of y’all aren’t from Dallas, TX and even fewer are from Plano, but this is IMPORTANT. Because it’s quietly happening everywhere. Dallas Stars owner, CANADIAN billionaire Tom Gaglardi, plans on moving the Stars out of Dallas to a BRAND NEW arena in Plano, Texas, opening in 2031. The arena is projected to cost $1 billion. He wants taxpayers to pick up $700 million, including $250 million in future taxes diverted from PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Plano voted 54% NO last Tuesday! But city officials and Gaglardi won’t take no for an answer and are finding ways to “WORK AROUND” democracy and use public money to finance the project. And by the way, cities that subsidize sports arenas get MINIMAL net revenue, which is why Dallas hasn’t rushed to build a new arena AND it will cause an insane amount of traffic on the Dallas North Tollway, which is already brutal! Hold your local-level officials ACCOUNTABLE! Don’t think corruption is only at the top.
