If they never had a commitment from the mall and even knew that the city was "working on them" then they never should have included the mall in their petition in the first place.



You aren't keeping up.

Never including them in the petition in the first place just guarantees they didn't get the revenue.

The issue is whether or not they aggressively pursued the Mall and offered a "guarantee" of what the tax situation would be.

I am keeping up. They didn't have the foresight to see BR annexing the property and potentially invalidating the entire petition. If they didn't have the mall's commitment, including them was a huge risk.

You just called Lionel Rainey, The Third, a liar. He has said the loss of the Mall's revenue would not be a big deal. They would just refuse to pay legacy costs.
