And guess what folks? You're going to pay for it! Corporate welfare?

As a tax payer of this City you should be outraged!!!

People write and complain about the streets, the golf coarse etc. etc., and  you should also be concerned that your park land and your open spaces that  are being given to big business!  Corporate welfare?

When the City of Oxnard and Big League Dreams are finished fleecing you with a  contract for 30 years, ( After 30, they  finally get their hand out of your pocket book) there isn't  going to be any money left for any other parks.

Quoting Councilman Dean Maulhardt:  "We are looking at a City wide assessment to cover the cost..." that means more tax money out of your pocket to pay for a private corporate entity. Corporate welfare again?

The current City Council is in favor of this public/private venture.
This deal with Big League Dreams an unadulterated hand out of your money and our park land. They get the park, 25 acres of open space, we pay for everything.  We can pay to watch, and pay to hang out at the bar!  (Might as well just make it a liquor store). Corporate welfare?

The City Council says Big League Dreams is for the kids?  
A full service bar has nothing to do with kids.  A shot of tequila with a beer chaser has nothing to do with kids?  Big league Dreams professes that they can't make it work unless they sell alcohol….what about the kids? 

Well, I guess if you want:  less traffic, better roads, more parks, and open space
for your families - get big business out of your pocket book
- - - - - - - - - - - - vote the incumbents out of office this  November.
