Exactly, it was public knowledge thd mayors right hand guy Daniels was negotiating with GGP to get them in the city.

Negotiations imply a give and take, a back and forth . So what were they promised?

Maybe just police and fire service, but maybe more. Who really knows, but it's obvious powerful people had a hand in all this from the legislature on down to City Hall.

I am sure Browning and Rainey were promising the moon as well, they didn't include them on the maps by accident.

No they don't. I negotiate all the time in business with set pricing and also in personal, and so do you when you sell something or sell yourself, or ask someone out on a date, or convince your kid it's in their best interest to do their homework and excel in school, etc. it's not always so dark and sinister as you may think it is. Negotiations can be something as simple as selling someone on the benefits of something or the negatives of the counter offer.

You jumped from "discussions" to "negotiations" without even blinking. Your paranoia is showing again.

I told you last December the MoL owners would not want to be at the mercy of some newcomer politician wannabes who might trap the Mall into a higher property tax situation without a penny's benefit going to the property owners...not even a decrease in their fire insurance premium rates.
