“The Jaguars supposedly will have a public-private deal for a massive renovation to EverBank Stadium soon; until it’s done, however, it’s not.”
The little liberal SJW that just got elected here is pushing for this, and I pray “until it’s done, however, it’s not.”
Eventually carrys the day.
To ask a city of around 1 million people to be taxed for something less than 80 thousand people will use 10 times a year is total bull$h!t
The NFL team uses the stadium 10 times a year, the Fla/Ga game is every year, Monster Trucks happens once a year, other events like concerts happen regularly at the stadium, plus all the development around the stadium that would dry up if the team left.
There is a huge amount of prime riverfront property that is sitting idle at the present time that would likely see major development if the stadium is renovated.
