Of course he is magnanimous enough to allow the County to pay him $2.8 million a year for 30 year on a payment plan for what he is owed.

Cranley will bend over. He has a statewide campaign to fund the next time around.

Isn't it funny how the deal they requested from UC (alterations to the stadium paid back via concessions) is so similar to the issue presented to them by the county (parking structure paid back using revenues), and yet they're up in arms? Goes to show you just how ****** that deal was for UC.

Actually, the parking garage is even worse. With Nippert, FCC paid for the notches and UC will pay them back. With the parking garage, the taxpayer pays for the structure but FCC wants the revenues. How is that even
legal?

To be fair, in this scenario the taxpayers aren't paying as a collective, only those who attend games/use the lot. It's coming from parking revenues, not taxation...but I get the sentiment.

FCC will argue that those revenues are theirs due to them being the reason why the structure exists and receives revenue...despite them not owning to the fact that the ACTUAL reason anything exists over there would be if the county signs off on it.
