Haha – this made me laugh. I live next to the HERC in the North Loop. It cleanly burns 286,000 tons of garbage every year while providing 1/5th of Mpls energy. And it doesn’t stink…How do I know? I LIVE 1 BLOCK AWAY. Instead, people turn this whole issue into a political one, where they can rant against politicians and corporate entities. I’m SURE none of the commenters on this page make livings working for any sort of company…. keep whining children.

Oh Go somewhere you librals. If I recall, this bill was passed by a majority of DFL’rs in the house and senate. Oh, by the way, the gov. can not pass a bill unless it is passed by both the house and senate. Same as the president. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Finally somebody is giving Leslie Davis some credit.

The stink is the least of the problem …

What about all the toxic emissions that don’t stink?

This monstrosity burns not only garbage but tires and industrial wastes. It’s allowed to send over 2.9 million pounds per year of health-damaging pollutants up the smokestacks. This includes 2200 pounds of lead and 360 pounds of mercury. (Actual emissions *might* be less.) (This information is from the air permit for the facility.)

Pawlenty o Stadiums, that is a major source of the deficit.

Now a packaging of the state budget as a debt instrument
to pay interest on. Real clever if you believed in no income no job mortgages.
Kind of like paying the credit card bill with another credit card.
Pawlenty is committing treason against the state with his Ponzi scheme.

Imagine how many school updates we could have gotten for the same money.

Or increases in the health care system. Or REAL infrastructure improvements, not just building playgrounds fore the rich.

Pawlenty has to go. Along with Coleman.

I always knew this stadium bill didn’t pass the smell test
