Link to Article from "The Record"
This idea is still being pushed in Springfield. The Star Bond amendment is now attached to a facility closure bill thanks to a Senate Amendment by Sen. James F. Clayborne, Jr.
SB2093 which also carries the Star Bond amendment has its Sponsor and two alternate chief co-sponsors in the State Senate. Its no surprise that the Chief Sponsor in the Senate for this bill is now Sen. James F. Clayborne, Jr.
If the idea here is to find a must pass bill to attach this amendment to for it to pass maybe pass it with the budget, that should be the only the only legislation anyone in Springfield should be working on, while its the least likely to be completed anytime soon.
Article from "The Bellevile News Democrat". Our Mayor in Columbia is on top of it, but from what I can tell Columbia really has no developments that we should be scared of losing to this development, its the state funding we should have an issue with. Talking with the developer about third party studies is pointless, the fiscal note from the Department of Revenue should have cleared up the negative aspects of the Star Bonds.
