Welcome to TED Talk - Battle of the Economic Reports is ON!

[MIGs Dog]

She said they got together and had a block party thing to discuss the pros and cons and the cons won out. Most of her neighborhood is aged 60+. She's kind of an outlier in her early 40s. The consensus was "if there's a Plan B, then they can go build it there."

Did they discuss plan B for the dump? Seems like that's more important to Tempe tax payers than whatever AM's plan B is.

 

[GhostofTommyBolin]

Well if thats what they decided.
But why do they think there is a plan b. Nobody said that publicly.
And also why not build there? Its a compost yard.

Beats me. I gave up on trying to figure out why people do what they do a long time ago. As far as the Plan B, I think there's been enough talk about it online that people have heard there is one. A couple folks I worked with asked me last week if Plan B was down here south of the 101/202 and the Suns are the only team I've ever heard them talk about. So it's out there for sure.

Last time I talked to her I told her the city would have to pay to clean it up if TED doesn't go through, so she might have brought it up. But we only had a quick conversation, so I can't verify.

They'll release all the ballots which have been counted to that point. It won't be 100% of the votes, but I'd expect it will be a large enough % of the ballots to predict the outcome.

Unless it’s too close to call on the earlies, i guess. Then it’s sitting and waiting time…

 

[awfulwaffle]

All I want is a yes vote on all 3, and garbage trucks moving in on Wednesday morning to begin clearing out the garbage.

@TheLegend - I am dubbing you the official bouncer of Coyotes forums everywhere. For real y'all, between the PHNX podcast today and the BoH thread, our dude is treating trolls like belligerent sophomores and tossing 'em out the MF club. I tip my hat.

 

[Kai Yo T]

The aforementioned ex and her neighbors all voted no. Just under 50 people in her Tempe neighborhood.

How close is their neighborhood to the actual site?

 

[MIGs Dog]

Latest turnout update.

PHNX pod? What’d I miss?

You missed Craig singing Noh Canada!!

Whomever that was was an obvious troll who didn’t get very far.

I’m going to guess it was one of those activist group people. There’s a few of them who keep invading the TempeWins page on FB.

 

[GhostofTommyBolin]

How close is their neighborhood to the actual site?

Between the arena site and Broadway.

 

[Kai Yo T]

Between the arena site and Broadway.

So they're really close unless my memory of the area is off. Haven't been through there in a while. I'd imaging they're more likely to be impacted directly, in some way, by the development based on location than most other Tempe communities. I wonder how much that might've factored into their voting no. And hopefully the way they see it isn't the common opinion in Tempe.

Edit: And hopefully some of the residents went rogue and voted yes anyways, community meeting be damned. Lol.

We’ll (likely) know in 24 hours.

 

[RABBIT]

We’ll (likely) know in 24 hours.

Either way, bad time for me to be in the middle of a cleanse

 

[Llewzaher]

So I hear in this thread a whole neighborhood voted no…. Do we have any good news? What is the vibe?

That’s just 50 people. Not a big deal. I’m sure they are an outlier. This should be a slam dunk for those with common sense.

 

[moosemeister]

It is what it is. No need to stress about something you have no control over.

At the end of the day, it's just sports. If they stay, awesome, I'll continue supporting. If they lose and relocate, I get 243 hours a year back to do something else.

Haven't lost any sleep over this. Not stressed about it. It's all good either way.

 

[Jagged Ice]

Tomorrow's going to either be depressing or party city.

 

[Snarky Coyote]

Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in Heaven has in store!
One more dawn
One more day
One day more!

 

[TheLegend]

Just listen to this at sunrise in the morning…
