Sam, As a member of the

Sam,

As a member of the Interstate Corridor URA CAC, and as a citizen who resides outside of any URA, I am inclined against most, if not all, extensions of URAs. There will be no end to worthy projects, but at some point they need to get funded on their merits without URA dollars. The UR "contract"...if you will...is that when the time or money runs out, the URA will return to tax rolls for the City general fund, schools, etc. I think this needs to be honored, despite the need to do more work in a URA.

I think LIDs are a better way to fund Streetcar, and spending good money on any couplet, to my thinking, is a waste.

So, I vote NO.
