It is corrupt, but they are building a ton of shite right now for the city.

Also, that timeline for the BJCC project (including renovations to the Legacy and a new stadium) is overblown. Could mean a 20-year viability plan and the person who reported it messed up.

City Council does have this thing approved and ready to go. What's awesome about this project? Two damn hotels near it with TopGolf in walking distance

I thought the funding rest on sales tax hoopla in Amendment 14

For the love of god, I hope this is passed. Bham and the state need this.

I honestly think it won't pass.

Doesn't mean the plans won't be built, just would be delayed due to lack of funding..just my guess though

ETA: currently passing atm 60-30

Damn been a long day lol

Not to keep flooding this thread with Bham shite, but Amendment 14 was passed yesterday, which was necessary to the BJCC project to open up funding.

Just got another CB for John Petty. It's 60-40 now advantage for Bama.

If either of these guys don't commit, I'm going to jump off a bridge.

Same. I used to say I'd be happy to just land one. Well that ship has sailed. It's all or nothing now. I want both or I'm jumping off of trump tower
