There used to be a law that government could not sell real estate below appraised value. The corruption of government for the people continues.

Why not rename the city. Jacobsville or Greedygultch. When will any low income housing be built as promised? The people who moved out with the "generous" stipend provided by Jacobs probably wish they were back in the broken down motels they saw demolished. Selling property below market value is not a sound business practice no matter what you are getting in return. That money is earmarked for other community favorable projects. The neon line is a bogus 3 card monte scam look what im giving Reno on this hand while i get sewer fees etc cut and tax incentives. Presto I now think ill recall it the 'Pion Line" because the line is paved with the lives of many who worked hard to make ends meet and raise their families. I had to stay in one of the motels with my family, my wife and two daughters for several months we made it a home. Now for 5 or 6 thousand dollars you can lease a place that 6 months ago was 700 a month. Things are changing quickly and the gentrification is upon us. Who ever.is left remember you voted for it, asked for it or supported it. The rich get richer everyone else WHO CARES!!
