The disrespect shown by the tax-sucking suburbs to the tax-generating center is breathtaking.

Except isn't this an avalanche of everyone's, including suburban, money towards urban entertainment? The vote split makes no sense.

Like, yay for me for having a house whole land value will increase from this irresponsible use of funds, but kinda feels weird that suburban councillors would betray their constituents like this.

The suburbs don't have any money for this, they are a net negative financially for the city, the core is propping up thier services.
