Is CSEC the Flames?

And who are they selling the land too? The Flames or a third party?

King says he thinks it would be appropriate to open up the Flames books to the city manager under a confidentiality agreement. (if this goes further down the line).

I believe the field would be below grade.

This is a win for the City, and should be a minimum requirement for a public funding request of this scale.

It bugs me that the City had to win this, and it isn't just an expectation, but still a very small step in the right direction.

King says CSEC will provide the security for the User Fee (i.e. ticket tax)

How did they have to win it?

The councilor asked for it, and he said yes with condition of confidentiality.

oh fair enough, I just assumed as it is my understanding the Flames and other professional sports organizations say no to this request when asking for arena funding.

Good on them for saying yes at the first request then.

Councilors ask if CESC will front the CRL...

King says it is a negotiable point.

It looks like they're making some positive progress. Maybe we will avoid the threats to move to Quebec City.

I'm on board if they can guarantee permanent lens flare for a 1km radius around the complex.

Having the fieldhouse be excavated several meters below grade next to a river that sometimes likes to Flood doesn't seem like a very future proof plan.

I know that apparently that part of the river doesn't appear to flood significantly, but I can't help but notice how the city component happens to be the part below grade.

CFL Mode looks a lot better than previous pictures.
