This line is believe-it-when-I-see-it: "While Andlauer says the city would likely have to be part of the project — whether that's all cash or a combination of cash and land is unclear — he's prepared to pay a significant portion of the cost out of his own pocket." (emphasis mine).

So Mr. Andlauer, write a cheque for $50M and let's get going.

It's certainly a generous position coming from the owner of a team pulling in 4,000 fans a game. So points for that.

As someone who has owned the team for 14 years, nothing about the City's bureaucratic metabolism should come as a surprise to him (especially in an year that will essentially paralyze council with not one but two elections).
