Over 8,400 New Jobs Since 2006

Back in August the Metro Chamber gave a job growth report, to the Tulsa City Council. They announced that since 2006 there has been a growth of 8,486 new jobs. Of those over 4,000 paid over $40,000 a year. Why are some people around here all excited about an estimated 9,000 jobs , which will drop to 4,500 or so because of the 7+ year river tax?

You'll hear Keith Bailey also tell us that,

"there is limited land areas especially as the river goes thru Tulsa"

Why should the citizens of the City of Tulsa pay 74% of the tax collected for a limited area of the river that can even be developed?

Sand Springs River City Park & 11ft of Water

Why would you want to fill this area with 11 feet of water?

Alot of changes will be needed to hold the water behind an 11 foot dam

In reality the water isn't that bad up in Sand Springs

Branson Landing was financed without a raising the County tax.

The project will include $157 million in private money, $116 million in local TIF, tourism tax and other local funds, and $32.3 million in funds from the state TIF over 19 years.

Why an Increase in Tax Revenue For Branson?

2007-09-30T10:38:00.000-07:00

True it was partly because of Branson Landing
Here is what helped bring more tax revenue:

Not too many weeks ago in a public meeting, it was pointed out that the developer of Branson Landing would form a Transportation Development District (TDD) that would impose a one percent TDD tax on retail sales within the Branson Landing project.

From "Yea! Yea! it's a WOW" of an "Easter," whoops sorry "Incentive," egg hunt at Branson Landing!

Is this the west bank look you want?

This is what happened to the west side of Lake Taneycomo in Branson. Is this what Tulsa really wants the west bank of the Arkansas River to look like?
