Fort Myers Mayor Jim Humphrey isn’t happy about the $80-million deal struck between Lee County and the Boston Red Sox for a new spring-training complex, saying it’s a bad deal for taxpayers.Fort Myers Mayor Jim Humphrey isn’t happy about the $80-million deal struck between Lee County and the Boston Red Sox for a new spring-training complex, saying it’s a bad deal for taxpayers. You might expect him to be unhappy: the deal takes the Red Sox out of City of Palms Park and its nearby training facility, leaving him with a property that won’t be generating revenue. But his larger point is that the project really will end up costing taxpayers money, as a proposed hike in the hotel tax may not cover all costs. You can tell he’s also peeved at what an incredibly sweet deal the Red Sox received; a summary in Word format is attached to this page. More from NBC 2.
