River Plan- Taxes/Funding

This whole river thing gets stranger the more I learn about it. I didn't remember that the 2025 ballot had promised 2 low water dams. I was under the impression that the funds were to help fund the environmental study and or design of the dams.  I was actually intent on finding the ballot and seeing if the wording had been misinterpreted or something. But I checked and there it was... "Construct two low water dams on the Arkansas River... 5.6 million dollars" Plain and simple, nothing to really misinterpret there.

We now obviously realize that these dams are going to cost more. But right under the list of 2025 projects it says...

"While the cost esimates shown above are believed to be accurate, it must be recognized that the exact cost of each project may vary from the estimate shown. It is the intention of the Board of County Commissioners of Tula county, Oklahoma, that all projects shall be completed as funds are made availabale."

Yes the original 5.6 mill wont pay for 2 new dams, but in the text it says that if the estimate is wrong and the project costs more, the project will still get paid for. THEN and only then, if there are any extra funds can those funds be available for additional projects and to go to local towns.

As much as I would like to see the dams done sooner than they will be under the 2025 plan. The only way to not do them that way is to do as it also says on the ballot...

"In addition, such public trust shall approve any deletion or addition of projects from those listed above...folowing a public hearing by such trust."

Unless there is some fine print that wasnt on the ballot, that would be the only way to legally remove the resposibility of building the two low water dams from the 2025 package. Has there been a public hearing and a change to remove the dams from the 2025 funding?

www.batesline.com impressario Michael Bates was on the KFAQ Morning Show today with Gwen Freeman & Chris Medlock, discussing how anticipated overages on the Vision 2025 sales tax collections would readily fund the construction of two Low Water Dams and remediate the existing 31st Street Low Water Dam, and conform to the proposed River Plan.

He also aptly mentions that the CONSTRUCTION of two low water dams, the remediation of the existing 31st Street Dam, and shoreline beautification along the 31st street bridge area, were ALREADY approved in Proposition #4 of the 2003 Vision 2025 Ballot.

He's also SHOCKED, SHOCKED that the local Tax Promoters want us to pay for the Low Water Dams TWICE.  Once during Vision 2025 funding; and, again during the new $0.004 Kaiser River Tax.

He also wrote a compelling article in this week's Urban Tulsa Weekly, "Putting Money Where the River Is", discussing the same topic, which is online at:

http://www.urbantulsa.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A17675[/url]

And, COINCIDENTALLY, City Councilor John Eagleton bravely brought forth as quoted in yesterday's Lorton's World a similar idea of how to use overages on Vision 2025 to fund the Kaiser River Plan projects.

http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=070726_1_A11_spanc05642

Eagleton's supremely timed counter-thrust to the tax blitzkrieg launched by the local ruling Power Oligarchy's mouthpiece Randi Miller, may just be pulling the right thread to unravel the whole, sordid River Tax comfort blanket.

And, Roscoe Turner at the City Council meeting remains his same old irrascible self, likewise strongly opposing any new County Tax.

It looks like this time the Tax Vampires may finally be facing some angry villagers carrying hammers and sharpened wooden stakes............

Come and Get It!

Artist, many people thought that v2025 was to quickly provide for construction of the dams. I was one of them and most people I knew thought this was going to happen right up to the time we voted.  We were mislead and not by accident. The arena and other projects were always to come first. That is why I am skeptical now. There is no real outsider oversight.

From today's Tulsa World:

http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=070727_1_A13_iispa15410

"The county plans its funding packages very conservatively, and any talk of surpluses is simply an estimate --"

"If anyone can tell me where we're going to be (financially) in 2017, then I'd like you to come up and take my place"

"..estimate is that the county will have a surplus of $84 million from the Vision 2025 sales-tax collections."

Okay.  So, which is it.  Surplus or not.  We are barely into the collection of sales tax for Vision 2025 and we are already estimating $84M in surplus.  Want to bet that number goes much higher.  

And Randi Miller says, no way are you spending that money on that project.

Give me a break!

[Conan71]

Correct me if I'm wrong.  Wasn't V2025 a collection of projects, the sum total of which would put a new face on Tulsa by the year 2025?  

Or was Vision 2025 referring to the fact that our city is slightly myopic?

Last time I checked, that would equate to about a 17.5 year deadline to have these projects finshed to complete the "vision".

What's the damn rush?  We have not completed the BOK center as of yet, there are other projects on the table, and ostensibly the low water dams are a part of the original V2025 project.

Probably wouldn't hurt at this juncture for our V2025 poster or David Arnett to chime in.

[TheArtist]

If the dams were originally estimated to cost 5.6 mill and now they are estimated at 25 mill each, "or whatever it is".

Then that money they keep talking about as surplus, isn't surplus at all.

That money is supposed to pay for the projects we voted for, even if they cost more than originally projected. AFTER all the projects can be paid for, those monies are surplus. As I see it, most of that money they keep calling surplus is going to get used up by the cost of the dams.

The phrase Vision 2025 was merely product packaging for a Tax-and-Spend package.

Sounded catchy.  Sounded visionary.  Sounded Futuristic.

Every project was ultimately about expanding Government infrastructure, whether needed or not, while coincidentally lining the pockets of a few of the local controlling Founder Families.  Every city government along with OU, OSU and NSU got at least one building project.

Mr. Average Tulsa-Nobody of course paid for this all with every purchase at the grocery store, furniture store, etc.

In the summer of 2003 when it was being promoted, what Tulsan had ever any earthly idea of what, where or even how they would be living 22 years in the future, or even would be among the living??

Only Death and Taxes are forever........

Give me a break!

The reason there will be HUGE overages in the Vision 2025 Sales Tax collection is really very simple:

Commissioner Dirty Bob Dick very dishonestly stated that because the County Government was so CONSERVATIVE, that its projections for the 13 year sales tax were FLAT.  A NO GROWTH budget.  

Our city government routinely projects a minimum 2-3% growth in sales taxes annually, in its budget projections.

That's why there will be a tremendous mountain of money in the tax overcollection during the 13 term of the tax.  

Literally, 100,000,000's of dollars.

And the Tax Vampires NEED TO FEED THEIR GREED.

Always wondered why it wasn't Vision 2020:  Tulsa's PERFECT Vision for the Future.
Maybe Vision 2025 sounded like that rock-and-roll song:  

In the Year 2525, if man is still alive, if woman can survive, we may find...........Kaiser River Plan Phase 5-2-5.  

Course by then with global warming, the Arkansas River will be a direct tributary of the Gulf of Mexico.

Glub, glub.

[8D]

[Sangria]

What bothers me most is that Randi Miller and the rest of the "Private" pushers for this never mentioned that it was already a part of Vision 2025.

If this is so important to Tulsa then why not be upfront and honest about everything?

Because they know if the voters knew all the real facts their project would sink just as fast as the channels.

You know what? Randi wants the money for the dams - she needs to have a cat fight with Kathy Taylor and take the money from the V2025. It would be a good fight but I think Randi can take her. []

I don't want to get too involved in this discussion, but I do want to weigh in with my vote.  If this "river tax" comes to a vote this fall, I will cast my vote as a "NO."

We all have our opinions on this, and I respect the pros and cons of both sides, but my vote will be "no", and there is not much I can hear or learn to change my mind on this one.

especially when it was already promised to you before in a previous tax.

I sure as heck hope you arent complaining about OU Tulsa, OSU Tulsa and NSU Broken Arrow getting some funding. IMO I would rather see my tax dollars go to them than roads or the river. Tulsa for so long never had a publicly funded university and all the benefits that gives to an area. "what Tulsan had ever any earthly idea of what, where or even how they would be living 22 years..? " Yea we fought for so long to get some colleges here that we had practically given up.  Who would have thought that we would actually have 3 budding new campuses. Oh and some of those "Founder families" have given quite generously to them and I am sure they will continue to do so.  

Oh and here is yet another thing that greedy Mr Kaiser, and others, is up to.

and this...

Donors to TCC's "Blueprint for the Future" campaign are:



Walt and Peggy Helmerich, who gave $250,000 for a nursing simulation lab.


Cancer Treatment Centers of America, which gave $150,000.


Howard and Billie Barnett, who gave $50,000 for a nursing classroom, plus $40,000 outside of the campaign for art for the building's atrium.


Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma, which gave $50,000 for a nursing classroom.


Henry and the late Anne Zarrow, who gave $50,000 for the DNA biotechnology lab.


Hillcrest Healthcare System, which gave $25,000 for a lecture classroom on behalf of Hillcrest Medical Center, Tulsa Regional Medical Center and Hillcrest Specialty Hospital.


Ruth Kaiser Nelson, who gave $25,000 for an instrument lab.


Maxine and Jack Zarrow, who gave $25,000 for a lecture classroom.


Tulsa Spine and Specialty Hospital, which gave $10,000 for the student, faculty and staff conference room.


Dr. Jose Medina of the Heart Center of Tulsa, who gave $2,000.


A donation from the Kate and Herman Kaiser Foundation made possible construction of a new library in the northeast corner of LaFortune Park. It will adjoin a new community center funded by the Vision 2025 sales tax. The 13,000-square-foot library will replace the Library@51st.

A new library in Sperry is in the design stage. It will be built in large part by a donation from the Henry Zarrow family.

and this...The George Kaiser Family Foundation was the sustaining sponsorship of Toyland Ball with its gift to the Parent Child Center's SafeCare program. U.S. Cellular was the 2007 presenting sponsor.

Premier patrons included Don and Pat Hardin and Mollie Williford.

Major sponsors included Bank of Oklahoma, Bryan Close, CloseBend Inc., Jeff and Connie Cope, Tom and Julie Kivisto Family Foundation, Jack and Margaret Neely, Ruth and Al Sowards on behalf of the Sisk Charitable Trust, SemGroup, Unit Corporation, Williams Cos., and the John Steele Zink Foundation.



The Helmerich Advanced Technology Research Center (ATRC) at OSU-Tulsa will house laboratories for faculty and graduate students who will develop the next generation of composites and materials used by many Oklahoma industries. Funds for the facility were provided from three sources: $30 million from Tulsa County's Vision 2025, $12.9 million from the state's higher education bond issue and $9 million from Walter and Peggy Helmerich of Tulsa.

   And very importantly this....

In 2005, for the fifth year, the Tulsa Community Foundation led the nation in gifts received, reporting a record $791.3 million. (thats more than the yearly city revenue, taxes, and budget)
