yes I'm absolutly ok with this, for one piece of wasted land not paying taxes there will be significant growth of other businesses paying taxes where without the project there will not be any.

is it better to have the land empty and collect nothing for tax or build the arena and have the flames only pay nothing and have the rest of the development collect tax?

I know what side I sit on
