LETTER: Negotiate new CC agreements before considering hotel room sales tax increase

LNP insults us every day!!!!!!

If Marv Adams and Gil Smart REALLY wanted to do an investigative series on the Convention Center woes; they would have started and finished by detailing the one-sided agreement between PSP and the Convention Center Authority. They would have included how MOST of the hotel financing was with PUBLIC FUNDS to benefit a PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP.

Rather than passing the shortfall onto hoteliers and taxpayers, why not call on PSP (and all proponents) to make up the shortfall and get a NEW AGREEMENT in place,then see how that works for a year or two before increasing any taxes; which should ONLY be done with a voting referundum approval at the next primary.

Maybe our elected county officials could force the issue!!!!!!!
