WHO's KIDDING WHOM?
Certainly there are games at play here in the funding issues......
DD said "no" then he said "not right now".....
Petey said sure we will be there.......when HRM is there..provided its not for "PRO" sport.
HRM has said lets first build a business case.....
CFL says they'd love to expand to become a coast to coast league.....but who would be the owner to build anew team or to bring an existing one? There is no Stadium big enough to sell enough tickets......
UNLESS TAX DOLLARS DO IT WHO IS GOING TO BUILD IT ?
Private developer???? Interesting scenario....
SAy.... just saying.....
That HRM gives...gifts...a developer a large portion of land say like the top of Burnside.....on the proviso that they build an ATLANTIC STADIUM! and they get free range on the rest of the parcel of land....to build.... office, parking, restaurants, hotels, .....they also get to manage the site....lease the Stadium, sell advertizing....lease concessions....all that stuff.....
AND..... no other competing "new" development get approval for ten years within a 5 km distance of the STADIUM~!!!! Not a monopoly but a protection of their investment
Do you think any developer has already been tossing that around?????
