Separation Scientist Posted July 20, 2023 Report Share Posted July 20, 2023 Asking a 78 year old to uproot and leave a very long term family home is a real big deal. They have a point, Aldine football never comes close to filling up stands. I hope he stands his grounds, OR, they make him an offer that includes an all expense paid moving crew and 2X his homes value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like well over an acre of green space around the stadium that could be used as parking. But once again this is a reminder that no1 owns their own land. Simply renting it from the government. The same govt that's suppose to be for the people. OK I'm climbing down off my soap box for now. I'll be looking for an update to this story later. Buyer beware... don't buy property near a school zone. Separation Scientist, Rez, Red Boyou and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately he's going to lose that battle once a government entity has its sight set on your property its all over...my advice to this homeowner is go to court armed with numbers so they can give you fair and just compensation because that first offer is always low (hence the reason he rejected it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladybug33 Posted October 19, 2023 Report Share Posted October 19, 2023 Aldine has revoked their decision to acquire this land. I can't wait to see the stadium though. Passing buy M.O.Campbell daily I can see that this will be a grand venue when it is finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvc184 Posted October 20, 2023 Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 Good for him that the school district made a quality of life decision. The law was on the school district’s side but popular opinion was not. Separation Scientist and Reagan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tens of Millions will be spent by Aldine ISD for empty bleachers that will never be sat in. Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever. Maybe. Maybe not. The old stadium had some issues. Most all schools are updating stadiums and school classrooms now a days.

I am just stating what their own people are saying, that Aldine ISD never comes close to filling the stadium. Its mostly empty every Friday night. People can't understand the need to build something that large and take the old guy's property in the process for unused parking spaces.

We used to play at Aldine alot before Texan Drive or whatever they call it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Separation Scientist Posted October 20, 2023 Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 A few might still happen there but its definitely lost favor for playoffs. Texan Drive, Sheldon ISD, Woodforest, Cy Fair FCU etc. are all much better choices in much better places. I cannot see Aldine ever being a destination stadium no matter how nice the new one is. The neighborhood around it is the problem. A few random rentals or soccer games will never compensate Aldine for what they are putting out on it.

His argument is that he wants to die while residing in the property which has been in his family for decades. He doesn’t want another place.
