SUMMARY:Backbone Radio:  Many Guests and include Aurora mayor candidat
 es
DESCRIPTION:Ross Kaminsky will be covering numerous topics of local an
 d national interest.\n \nFirst hour:  Discussion of political and e

 ott Wheeler from the National Republican Trust PAC and National Invest
 igative Media will discuss recent findings of a financial relationship
  between the news wire service Associated Press and federal government

 -produces-flawed-analysis-of-obama-political-health/#more-442\n\n \nS
 econd hour:  Talk with Randall O'Toole of the Cato Institute about ta
 x-increment financing (TIF) which is a financing mechanism a number of
  cities are using to subsidize development in the communities.  O'Too
 le argues that this is anything but free money.  Of current interest 
 is the City of Aurora using TIF to bring a Gaylord complex to the area
 . \n \nBackground from Cato Institute:\nhttp://www.cato.org/pub_disp
 lay.php?pub_id=13095\n \n \n\nTwo of the 5 candidates for Aurora may
 or may join the discussion.  This certainly would allow Ryan Frazier 
 and Jude Sandvall an opportunity to continue the lively debate starte
 d Tuesday evening at the Arapahoe County Tea Party meeting.  From th
 e meeting, Ryan Frazier as a current City Council member has voted for
  the Gaylord project and finds the promise of jobs the driving force,
  while Jude Sandvall has concerns that the TIF circumvents TABOR, plac
 es demands on other city services that others may be taxed for, and th
 ere are concerns that other local communities have already have had fa
 ilures on these contracts. \nhttp://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_184086
