Blog Break interruption, sorry, The Sioux Empire Fairgrounds.

Usually when I hear rumors, I like to ask; Are these rumors or truth? Or I don’t say anything at all. But tonight, I am only asking questions, and wonder if anyone in the SF MSM is going to ask the same questions? Here they are . . . (based on reliable sources)

• What ever happened to the appraisal of the SE Fairgrounds?

• What ever happened to the legal assessment if they could be sold or not?

• Is it fair for the same company that wants to buy the quarry rich fairgrounds (Sweetman?) to be giving the appraisal on the land?

• Is it true that a certain county commissioner who happens to be a lawyer is representing the same firm that wants to buy the fairgrounds? Is that a gigantic conflict of interest?

It seems some questions need to be asked and answered. Personally I don’t have a problem with the fairgrounds being bought, as long as the buyer built a modern facility at another location and gave a commission on the quarry sales.

We will see how this pans out, DaCola isn’t the only one that got a hot tip on this, keep you eyes open.
