As Bingo has pointed out, all of these ancillary projects are required regardless of the project being developed on that space. Hell, those projects likely have to happen without development of the land, so they shouldn't be lumped in the scope of the project. The city should have these costs enumerated, but to include these in the scope of this project is not kosher.

Right, but the Flames are asking the City to move their plans up.
The city probably wouldn't be developing West Village for another 20 years without CalgaryNext.
