Closing Farnam for three years will destroy the businesses already there that are trying to make it. If it is such a wonderful plan, then let the People vote on it. Prove it.

It is my opinion that the implementation of a streetcar is an extremely costly project that will only serve a few people. I cannot picture myself or anyone I know ever actually using it more than once, just to say they did. It seems to be a gimmick that will cost hundreds of millions and I believe those costs will be passed on to residents of Omaha who will never experience any actual benefit of having it. The focus should be placed on infrastructure and maintenance. Roads, bridges and parks. Law enforcement and education systems as well. Property, vehicle and utility costs are already high enough. I do not wish to be on the hook for something I did not get to vote for.

There are much better things to spend money on in Omaha. A street car will be a huge drain on the city of Omaha and benefit no one in the long run

We need our streets fixed. If downtown wants a streetcar, then find private funding or tax businesses in that area.

Waste of money. Benefits do not justify the costs.

A street car serves no real purpose. Drop the idea. Especially after being told by Mr. Buffet it's not a good investment.

We don’t need it or want it. It doesn’t serve all our citizens but only Mutual of Omaha employees.

We do not need a streetcar that would serve a minute percentage of our population. How about the city spend more on repairing our roads? Service the entire city instead of a miniscule section.
