Coming soon: $20 increase in car tabs for Kent residents to pay for the capital fund they raided to pay for this sign to market the building to lose money on non-existent events.

Nice planning, Kent Economic Development gurus and elected buffoons. It is on par with your attempts to develop a farmer’s market building, an ice arena, a water park and condo development (now vacant eyesore) and yes a wholesale giveaway of downtown land for whatever latest private enterprise endeavor that come along.

What has happened to Kent indeed.
