But that's nothing approaching a formal proposal to the City.
This will be a long, iterative process with a lot of political and public hand-wringing, is my guess. The site they are talking about is as about as complex as they come, and the dollar amounts are enormous.
I also do know the Mayor and his Chief of Staff were at the Flames celebration event tonight, so discussions are probably ongoing.

Thanks appreciate your feedback.
This has all the tell tale signs of both parties not budging an inch in collectively moving forwards towards a public anouncement anytime soon.
This will get pushed until the 11th hour.
Perhaps selfishly for myself it is for the best because i fully expect the Flames to screw over the STH's with even more over inflated prices. As do many of the fellow STH's feel the same way in our section. There is a real fear that many of us will financially be priced out of fair affordabability and the Flames will just replace a certain amount of STH's with more wealthy ones.
We hope we are wrong.
But like I said i do appreciate your feedback regardless how I feel about Nenshi in general.
