What Could We Do With $1 Million Extra In Sales Tax Revenue?
Some more ideas on how Pullman could use the extra $1 million in annual sales tax revenue that would be produced by a Wal-Mart Supercenter, derived from an article by Michelle Dupler in today's Moscow-Pullman Daily News:
Path linking Johnson Road to Koppel Farm, adding a bridge over Paradise Creek near the Village Centre Cinemas and Fireside Grille restaurant, path along North Grand Avenue to Terre View Drive, giving residents of northeast Pullman pedestrian access to Dissmores and other businesses, and path down College Hill from the Maple Street extension to North Grand Avenue - $814,000
Fine arts pavilion in Sunnyside Park - $350,000
Improved lighting and restrooms at Kruegel Park and the City Playfields - $760,000
Street repairs - $1.2 million

I would like to just see some general work done at the city playfields. We have had 3 rained out games this season. One time it was because it had rained THE DAY BEFORE the game. The drainage is horrible. Moscow is better off with their fields and generally have less rainouts.
I am hoping Pullman will set aside a percentage for future infrastructure development such as the proposed south by-pass and utility extention along the corridor. Undoubtedly, there will be other opportunities that we should try to be ready for.
