3 Thoughts on “Billion Street Vacation Video

    Greg N. knows his subject. Great presentation. Brief and easy as possible to understand. Here’s our Cooper retired replacement. It’s obvious Billion wants to expand west. I’d suggest the city speed this up and comply. Otherwise, Billion will relocate near a freeway exit outside city limits. It’s a lot of city sales tax moving to Lincoln County. There’s a mish mash of restrictions and ordinances that can be overcome with one major variance. What’s good here is street abandonment means less traffic coming onto 41st where there’s always lane crossing and conjestion problems.

  2. Optics are a funny thing. What it sounds like and what it is, are two different things. In Sioux Falls its doing business as usual. The optics in this look like we’re getting screwed as usual.

    And you thought a vacation was where you spent your assets. You had your summer vacation at Wall Lake? Try taking Duluth and find a cool million.

    Here we show you how to get ahead while not answering simple questions. Even when the Mayor asks you point blank.

    Screw the neighborhood. Screw the homeowners. Screw the city of Sioux Falls. Be a bumbler and still have rules bent in your favor.

    The city of Sioux Falls neighborhood has now vacated a street just weeks after the same city council rejected almost exact plan. What gives? Why are the rules always being bent so the large developer or business or wealthy person gets what they want from city hall? When an average citizen can’t even get several council members to take a phone call to get a pothole fixed?

    Why did this come back to the council so soon? Shouldn’t there have been some time period between reappearances? Should there have been some type of accommodation for neighbor concerns?

    The Dugan Park neighbors have worked hard to keep their neighborhood together and once again a special business was able to take it away.

    We can’t blame someone for going after what they want but we do have a problem with a city government giving into every one of the whims in the name of some type of “progress”. A strange sense of progress.

    Not good, not good at all.

    When Billion wins, I suggest a huge barbecue block party on the abandoned right-of-way. The mayor can’t afford to lose Billion to Lincoln County. Let’s celebrate real business overcoming credit card corruption. I’m buying my next car with PayPal.
