I listened to it online, and I'm not sure what business case you are referring to? I didn't hear any part where he mentioned the city would get back all the money for reclamation, field house and inevitable road and transit costs. He basically showed up as a cheerleader and reiterated everything we already know. I'm not impressed at all with the proposal, and he didn't change my mind.
He talked like we are going to be reaping benefits of revitalizing a blighted area, and I might agree if the proposal was to pay for reclamation. If it made economic sense to do that at this point in time, the city would have moved on it. I'd be OK with the city giving them the land, but asking us to clean it up is a bit rich.
