My vote will be no… we all pay enough tax
I don’t honestly see what I gain… maybe a seat tax could fund it

While i am definitely not for the overall theory that raising taxes solves problems; complaining about the cost of this doesn’t make sense to me. Of the 131 million dollar price tag; 40 million is being paid by the Fargodome, part of it is being paid by a 3% increase in the lodging tax, which would almost all be paid for by non residents, and a 1/4 cent city sales tax. Do the math. If you spend $100, you would pay an additional 25 cents more then before. This is not a massive tax burden people.

It would be interesting to me to see projections on the potential increase in revenue to the city, what that does to the overall tax base and what the overall gain is to city residents vs. what a typical resident would likely pay. My guess is that the extra couple hundred bucks that would be paid by a quarter cent sales tax would be offset dramatically by the revenue that helps the overall tax base.
North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.Bob Lutz, The Wichita Eagle, August 30th, 2013
