Exactly! If the municipalities cannot do the things, FR will find a way to do it themselves. It is for the soldiers and their families. No reason to manifest a huge depicit just to complete with Picerne. Try working with the soldier on what you can compete with. If Fort Riley wants to make official changes to their infastructure, they send a statement request to the Dept of Army along with the other posts. These statements go to the Dept of Defense for approval; then onto Congress. This process can take five years in some ways. With Picerne, they build to suit the soldiers mission. The funds they receive amount to the soldiers monthly quarters allowance. Picerne is involved in all aspects of Fort Riley and is not handicapped with governmental bureacracy. Unless you can create a community on governmental property, having a fifty year contract, you will have a hard time in really taking much away.
Also Picerne only has to worry about subcontracting out to reliable individuals and do not have to really worry about where to get the money; the money is nearly always there and does not include having to tax its customers.
