Thanks for the update fellas, sounds positive.
We’ll file this under the “gossip” portion of “Caffeinated News & Gossip,” but city council sources tell us they’ve heard there are five votes lining up to green light the arena deal. (The council needs five votes to approve the deal.)

Reports say that city council has reached deal with Hansen's group. Stay turned for more details, official announcement may come today.

Just want to point out that this isn't the official Hansen group twitter & instead just a deceiving fan account. It annoys me that whoever runs it doesn't go out of their way to make it more obvious. Pointing this out so people don't get confused like before.
What's happened is that Mitch today said on his show that he's hearing that a deal is basically agreed upon. That they just need to dot the i's and cross the t's. That an announcement could come as soon as today, but more likely sometime next week. Hansen and the City both have said today that nothing has been agreed upon. But all signs are looking good. Mitch has been on point on this thing. So I take it to mean something. Fingers crossed.
Sounds like we're getting real close. We can't let up though. Keep emailing & calling the city council members! It's the final minutes of the 4th qtr. Close out time!

Seattle City Council @SeattleCouncil
We’re still in ongoing negotiations over #SeattleArena. We hope to have information to share soon.

I think only about 15 percent of this board will understand that Gunslinger.
