Could the Ragin’ Cajuns be getting a new football stadium?

No everything outside of the SEZ is out of code and needs to be redone

Could we do it incrementally is what my questions is? Updating it over time? I am guessing no.

Which is hard to believe that they wouldn’t allow it if it is going towards actually getting the structure up to code.

Still trying to wrap my head around that.

If a stadium tax would ever be put to vote...I would have to delete all social media for the months prior to election date...and months post-passed tax...I wouldn’t be able to take the uneducated, backhanded comments about our beloved university...

Sounds more like a brain fart to me.

They can't find money to fund TOPS, Universities and Health Care and there is going to be a tax passed to build a football stadium???

I have some beach front property in Bunkie to sell you.

Unfortunately when one of the first actions as the newly elected governor is to add 200K people to the Medicaid roles without any funding, it's not surprising we have even more of a shortfall in funding for health care in this state. And that is after he has raised $2.6 Billion in new taxes and fees in two short years.

There is no way any stadium tax will be approved in light of more state taxes and now parish taxes are renewed or approved.

State government’s budget and local tax are totally separate things Vickie..

I don't think all the LSU alumni in the area would vote for a tax for our Stadium. That's a lot of votes against that I don't think could be overcome.

What if upper deck were scrapped then rebuilt by RCAF as a separate occupancy from lower bowl? Then the lower bowl can be freshened but otherwise not a total redo. Let RCAF build smaller matching west and east upper decks wrapped with pre-sold suites, stadium clubs, and squeeze a press box in there. Still takes big money, willing donors, winning program.

The sentiment is the same MAT, we just voted on some property tax renewals and now the council want to come back again in November with more here in Lafayette. I have no intentions on voting for any more property taxes when we are not a consolidated government.

I am absolutely with you on this T.
