If there was a stadium there would be jobs because the stadium could not only host a minor league team, but other events as well such as concerts, graduation ceremonies, and private events.

The tax increase would be minor, about thirty-seven cents per $100, but the benefits would be major. This town is great and can be even greater, but citizens need to see beyond the short-term and look to the long-term.
