Down Tulsa sucks. Is seems like the rich of Tulsa are backing the mayer or pushing to make ,a rich play ground for the wealthy and the uppy rich baby boomers of this fair city called Tulsa. The big problem with the are surrounding the BOK center is the parking problem. The inviroment surrounding this area is also a problem. You have the city jail, the prerelease center, the YMCA, the salvation army center for the homeless, the civic center (safe haven for the winos, bums and poor people down on their lucks ). This all makes sense. This is the right atmospear that a great venue needs to promote this great building. Yes thye BOK center has brought in a large amount of revenue for the city, country, ect. because of the large service fee put on the price ticket, there in no such thing as a $49.00 ticket when you add a $37.50 servece fee for each ticket. It makes some of the ticket unafordable for ths common fan. Concerts are too costly to go for an evening out. Mayor Taylor sure got in a hurry when she found out the Driller baseball team might be heading to Jenks , to get a proposal to secure a contract to provide the team with a new ball park. WAM , BAM thank you mam, we are building a new mone. She got some of her rich friends to come up with donations for the ballpark. Then she decieded to rase a high tax rate to the property owner for the next 30 years to pay for restr of the bill. City hall does not care for the little people out there when it comes for a play mground foe the rich. There again where is the parking, and traffic jams that this ball park going to ,generate to be figured out. Getting off I244 will cause a traffic jam. They will have to improve the amount of lanes coming from I244 ant the surounding side streets getting in to the new park. One thing about the fair grounds is that they have plenty parking. Down at the new ball park there would not be. On another thought. Your collunist Michael D.Bates needs to eithir gripe about Tulsa and the mayor or kiss there ass not both. One editorial he is pissed at them, ant the next time ha kisses there ass, praising them at how grate of a job that they are doing . He needs to focus on another colum called " WHY DOES TULSA SUCKS " and the people write in and he can answere their complated. This mway he has a better idea what the people think of how the city of Tulsa is complying with the citizens concerns. Just like the Batman movie when the Joker said" what this town needs is an enama" We need the City council to elect official to comply with what the people need in their districts not what they themselves think. The Urban Tulsa paper looks like an Hipy underground paper out of the 60s.Us older citizens of this city are here to stay, dont worry about getting the young professionals to set up roots down town If the cost of living is high, and it will come. In every city when a lot mod development happens prices will go up, not down. The young pros. will have to make big money to live there. Finally My sugestion to MR Bates stay on one tract. Either critize the city and their polititions or KISS THEIR ASS not both, and you will have a collum worth reading. Thank The Revern Jake
