There's still 7 years remaining on the lease. The sense of urgency is artificial. There were way too many things in the current proposal without a lick of legal detail. There was no community benefits agreement made, which is what would have given the actual community tangible benefits instead of just future promises with no detailed path to make it work. The teams aren't simply going to throw their hands up and move away. Missouri also just voted to eliminate corporate income tax as well, which is more incentive for them to stay in MO.
