Would a soccer stadium give economy a boost?
Question: Should the city approve a soccer stadium development plan for the Qualcomm Stadium site without a public vote?
Bob’s Answer: NO
San Diego must create a strategic plan first. The Chargers put us under pressure for a major public subsidy and it was bad policy and rightfully was soundly defeated.
The soccer stadium might be a great fit — but we as citizens have a right to a proper review of alternatives by our elected officials.
Let’s do this right and create the highest and best use of the Qualcomm Stadium site.
