I'm saddened but relieved at the same time (Beaver's Baseball isn't coming to Beaverton)

By Todd Clark (Broker/Sales Coach) 503-524-9494

beavers baseballOver the past few days I've been stuck in bed with the flu and somehow missed the news that the Beavers Baseball team were no longer coming to Beaverton. But at the same time I'm relieved. I had some very mixed emotions about the Beavers coming to Beaverton because I don't want to lose baseball in Oregon and right now that is looking like something that could actually happen.

But, at the same time, I knew in order for the City of Beaverton to bring the Beavers to town they would have to use their powers of condemnation to build it. I am very much against the government taking private property for public use unless it is absolutely necessary and a baseball stadium isn't a necessity, even for me.

So, though I am saddened, I would like to thank Mayor Doyle for taking the high road and not taking the land of private citizens to make this happen.

Taking private land for a baseball stadium would have been very wrong.

Yes, poor use of eminent domain powers; though can't say baseball isn't highest and best use...
