The ultimate responsibility for the stadium overruns rests squarely and solely on the shoulders of the county commissioners. Had the lease agreement been made public, the tax would have never passed. How predictable and pathetic. Our schools crumble, our nurses and teachers go hungry but we will have two new stadiums. Then the blame lies with the Hamilton County leadership that negotiated the lease with Mr. Brown.
Companies always build in cost-overrun factors.
They knew when they bid the completion date for the stadium. It is their responsibility to get it done on time. Make them honor their quote. Another spontaneous decision by commissioners, planning committee, etc. I'm not pleased with the overruns.
