the city came back with a counter cost summary that was way more disingenuous than the Flames group.
I just don't see bad faith. I didn't like the marketing, I didn't like the King comments around it. I think they picked the wrong front guy.
But I could see what they were trying to do. The city had a west village blight and a need for a field house, and they were trying to find a solution that would work for every one.
I do think it was an initial proposal and they expected a counter with new ideas and a different share model.
Instead they got a mayor grandstanding.
