Thats all I want.

I have no problem with public funds for an arena, none at all, provided the price is right and we get paid back.

You want to borrow money from the City to help, you want the City to help pay, okay, I dont have any problem with that, so long as its within a framework that we can look at and understand and know what our contribution has been and how we're being paid back.

But just handing cheques and buildings to Billionaires isnt something I abide.
