Another thing was the breadbox loan and the mayor and Shad Khan created this deal with secrecy and without transparency. Let's be real, this city love to stay in the old days of Jacksonville and they don't want involved in the mind and Hearts when it comes to evolving the city into something special.

Admittedly I don't know all the details around this project.  Besides hating a political rival, their main complaint was that this was one of those "you have to approve it to know what's in it" kind of deals?  Is it true the city doesnt know how much money they'd have to put in to the Lot J project, or how the revenue would be distributed, or the tax implications for Shad, etc... ?   What were the unknown questions that the city was not made aware of that made them hesitant to vote yes?  Seems pretty odd.  If the issue was the city was putting up all the cash and Shad was getting all the profit, I could understand something like that.
