Broward County Vote Tomorrow Could Determine The Future Of The Florida Panthers

from George Richards of On Frozen Pond,

The Florida Panthers future in South Florida will likely be determined in a county meeting Tuesday afternoon.

The Broward County Commission is expected to vote on a financial package in which the team's long-term lease at the county-owned BB&T Center will be rewritten, with the Panthers getting more tourist tax money to help offset massive losses.

The Panthers and county administrators negotiated the terms over the past year.

Those terms, which would give the team a financial package worth $86 million, were presented to the commission at an October meeting.

I have been following this topic over the last few days and what I have read is the vote should pass.
