The June 4, 2015, MEGA NBA Bucks deal, It’s Cheaper to Keep Them” deal, submitted by Scott Walker – Governor of WI, Chris Abele – County Executive of Milwaukee County and  Tom Barrett – Mayor of Milwaukee FAILED to provide due diligence and profit loss for the taxpayers of Milwaukee to buy-in.


The Checklist grows long with missed “due diligence”.

Approval and Agreement of "building a NEW NBA Bucks Arena" by Herb Kohl, Marc Lasry, Wes Edens and behind the scenes power brokers as a pre-requisite of selling the NBA Bucks Team was not disclosed, discussed and approved by the People.

Prior to Walker, Abele, Barrett and the "Republican only" delegation decisions, NO cost benefit analysis was presented to the state legislators and Milwaukee Common Council for presentation to the ultimate decision makers - The taxpayers and stakeholders for final approval.

Special funding and resources yield by the People to promote information technology, recreation, the arts and business development at the neighborhood and NSP levels.

Disclosure and Transparency - Layout of individuals, organizations and businesses that are in the deal from "What's In it For Me" – collaborators promised a piece of the pie benefits.

Creation of a body of neighborhood stakeholders of the city of Milwaukee to monitor and provide oversight monthly for accountability.

The June 4, 2015 deal called, "It is Cheaper to Keep Them"’signed by Scott Walker, Governor of Wisconsin, is not the BEST PRACTICE development for the Peopl of the city of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County.

They failed to consult with the people. 

Walker and his GOP representatives (DEMOCRATS were not included) failed to ethically address the sensitive and costly issues of the NBA Bucks Arena and the seige of land and massive benefits by Herb Kohl, Marc Lasry, Wes Eden, developers and investors brings shame to the elected-appointed-hired and donor for hire representatives of government.

NO DEAL as is.
