Flames shouldn't get free/cheap rent. If they want free rent, pay for the entire facility (not a portion), purchase the land, pay tax on the expensive land they have purchased, and contribute to road / transit upgrades to handle to increase traffic as per other private examples. Otherwise, they should be charged rent which includes operating costs and profit for whoever owns the facility.

Oh and because of city leverage -as in that new facility will be one of the kind in the city, and the only facility which can host this asset for the flames, that rent should be high as hell. This would apply for any other for profit industry. Otherwise, threaten to leave, I used to care, I really did... now... not so sure anymore.

What a scam we are being sold.
