At $32M you said Mandalay and Atlanta had to have more skin in the game. At $42M you say you're not comfortable with that number.
Yet every poll says we'd LIKE baseball here but we don't want to PAY for baseball here. Both scientific and non scientific polling shows this to be true.
End this farce on July 10 - vote to NOT let this go to a referendum and let it die a quick death. The ONLY option is full payment by Mandalanta.
If you and council vote for continuation of this effort at the level of $42M you will have committed a gross failure in your fiduciary responsibilities to the taxpayers in this city.
I hope Mandalay can come in with something thats better than the previous deal.
Otherwise it shouldn't even have to go before the voters.
