OPPD estimates the cost of
reinforcing or moving its infrastructure for the Omaha streetcar line at $6
million-$12 million, cost shared by city and utility. The streetcar funding scheme now wants state
taxpayers (LB 477) to pay $100 million to share costs. How many people in Scottsbluff and North
Platte will ride the Omaha streetcar? Sign
the Stop the Omaha Streetcar in its Tracks online petition at www.netaxpayers.org. Email netaxpayers@gmail.com
to circulate a paper petition.
