If you have read the newspaper or watched the news there could be a great injustice going on at the Fairgrounds/Race Track. They (city) is trying to take your Fair Grounds and sell it to a Developer and move your State Fair and you the people of the State of TN that is your property and you have a say on if you want the Fair to Stays or Go’s. You the people of the State of TN need to tell the Fair Board to leave your property alone. And leave the State Fair right where it is. And fix it up. The City/State does not need to burden on the tax payers to move the Fairgrounds. Because, if they move the Fairgrounds the property taxes around the Fairgrounds property will go up. No, this is not right at all.
According to the City Charter the Fair Board can not sell that property and could be a great injustice being done to the people of the state of TN. Where you need to look in the City Charter is Administration Fair Board Commissioners Acts of 1909 Chapter 490 Section 7 and this was passed 1909.
The other matter is the Race Track and truthfully that is part of NASCARS History.
To all would you all please find in your heart to help me save the Race Track at the Fairgrounds here in Nashville, TN.? As some of you know they are trying to do a way with the state fair and also the race track so if you like racing please sign this petition. www.petitiononline.com/RaceFair/petition.html
I am just one person and I alone can not stop what could be an great injustice by myself I need the people of the State of TN to help so I call on you the people of the State of TN to stand with me and help me fight what could be an great injustice. And together we can beat the Fair Board and the City.
