I'm pretty sure the county commission already voted on it and did approve the $10M per year. The BJCC and County both had their money committments pretty firm as I understood it. It was the city of Birmingham that was not sure, but accordding to what I understand, the city of Birmingham has recently upped their contribution from $5M per year to $8M per year. I think everything is on track now since Haney has come in and provided private money towards the project.
