I do not. However no property taxes would be generated on the stadium itself. Economicdevelopment outside the stadium would generate increased property taxes and of courseadditional sales taxes tsshat would benefit the school. Nothing is taken away from schoolfunding. This will only have a positive impact.

Stadium. I noted that $8.67 million of property tax revenue was "reallocated" to support the newstadium.
Please advise where those funds were originally allocated and why when we have to furloughteachers and lose 5 days of instructional time, we were not able to reallocate revenue to ourschool system?
Thank you,

Mr. Lee,
I am a Mableton resident, Braves fan, and Treasurer of the Mableton Elementary PTA. I wouldlike some confirmation and easing of my concerns regarding the funding of the new BravesStadium.
I see the struggles of the Cobb County Schools due to reduced tax revenue. I "get" that propertytaxes, sales taxes, and bonds are different things and are paid by different constituents in our
community. While I would love to shorten my commute to a Braves game, please confirm thatany incentives the Braves have been offered to "do this deal" do not in any way reduce theproperty taxes that ultimately fund schools in our community.
Thank you,
