FIX IT--EVERYBODY DOES NOT NEED BRAND NEW--CAPTAINS AND LT'S DO NOT NEED BIGGER DESKS AND CHAIRS--HIRE MORE PEOPLE TO FIX AND LESS THAT COMPLAIN

If the City Council hadn't been padding the bond for other pet projects doubling the bond then it may have passed. The departments should have stepped in and protest the excessive bonding instead of sitting back and taking it all in. Then there is the windfall property taxes that can be used to replace the needed new building now instead of having to bond everybodys property with more taxes. The Salt Lake City council should be getting chastized and jailed for their attempts at deception and lies. But the sad thing is the people aren't safe from it yet, it has been known that voter issues have been overturned in court and the voters rights were invalidated as illegal. The police department should be well aware of this, voter decesions have been invalidated by the law enforcement departments in Utah in the past by taking it to court and overturned the election results. It's apparent this is the next step of the Salt Lake City council now, to invalidate the vote and overturn the decisions of the voters in a one sided courtroom decision of a judge. With the vote secretly and covertly invalidated they can impose the bond.

This is real easy. Let's see what you can do for $50 Million. In the real world, with real world prices, you can do quite a lot. Give us the address of the new parcel and lets see what some real world people can come up with.

Lets have a design contest, teaming architects, commercial developers, contractors, etc. If the public really believed you needed to spend $192 Million or whatever, it would have passed.

Even though my property taxes were already raised by about $100 I would have said yes on this. The ill-informed vote of the people on Vouchers (because I knew it was coming) changed my mind. I can't afford to have TWO issues raising my taxes, and people, you can be sure that with the increase of students coming, we will be taxed over it.
Oh, now that 200 South has been ruined for East-West traffic because of the loss of 2 lanes for parking at the Metro police station, I wonder if that's payback. That makes three streets unusable for getting back and forth.

Two things have caught my eye in the news recently. The legislature's equalization plan for building new schools statewide could raise property taxes in the Salt Lake City school district on a $200,000 home by about $125.00 a year. How is a tax payer supposed to pay for all this? Also, the Walker Center in downtown Salt Lake that was built in 1911 with one male restroom on each floor was just renovated into class A office space for $15 million. Howcome the police and fire building built in 1957 cannot be revovated to a class A building?

It is forever amazing how residents in Utah, and especially SLC, will sacrifice safety rather than pay taxes. You get what you pay for folks. Does anyone in the city know that the city has no Emergency Operations Center from which to manage adequate response in case of a major disaster? Perhaps y'all should wake up and understand what is needed to protect your families.
