"ah they'll never be able to build on that dump off land" and "universal will always be playing catch up".
You should have told him the land was cleaned up years ago!

If the city was on site there must have been some kind of confusion with the plans or they needed clarification on something. This happened in our community a couple times. You start talking with the city or county and they are confused about how something will work or how the land is today and so you get an on-site meeting with the government officials and Universal to go over everything and work on a solution for what ever problem they are working on. This is all part of the pre-talk I talked about before. This happens before "official" plans are submitted to be voted on.
It's called, "a serious case of envy & jealousy".I was chatting with a bar man at Disney about how universal were expanding and pumping a ton of cash into their resort, the conversation got on to the new land purchase and boy did he get defensive "ah they'll never be able to build on that dump off land" and "universal will always be playing catch up".
What is our it with folk lol, seriously blinded by pixie dust.
Can't wait till they break ground our release plans for that land, I'll be site to head back for a smug pint
It could also be that they just brought them out to show them how great everything they do is. It's always a good idea to get out and view these things on ground level in person to give perspective to plans and concepts and they could just be trying to help them visualize their plan.If the city was on site there must have been some kind of confusion with the plans or they needed clarification on something.

That definitely could be the reason, but I doubt it. It's a little late in the process.Couldn't the city be out there looking over the plans to renfigure for Volcano Bay.
Yep. Orange County Planning Division would be touring South Universal as the City Of Orlando limits don't extend too far past Current Universal.It sounds like they were on site at the current resort, not Site B

Very interesting. City of Orlando usually doesn't do that so whatever it may be it has to be something that can be of value. Be it transit or conceptual design.
Also sounds as though I-Square isn't happening..... Universal should and I wish they would buyout everything or as many parcels as possible between the boarders of
East of Universal Blvd
South of I-4
West of Kirkman
North of Sand Lake.

But City of Orlando would be at the Wet n Wild site.
Sea World itself? Or some other land Sea World has the rights too?And Universal should also buy the land SeaWorld has as well....

My only thing with that, that would hurt some o the other flagship resorts partnerships with Sea World. I also don't like Universal existing pass Universal Blvd. The county has terrible zoning, but nothing the parks can do about that now. I don't want them to buy the land at Sea World. But if Sea World is ever for Sale, I'd like Universal to buy the Sea World itself, and incorporate it's marine tributes and attractions into their existing and future park(s) here in Orlando.Both. Mainly looking at Discovery Cove (needed boutique for Universal...make it an actual resort they will have something to compete with AKL) and Aquatica (replace Wet N Wild revenue and place for locals).

It has come to my attention that all of this glorious theme park construction around the world is beginning to take its toll on major USA themed vendors. Perhaps some of it is greed, a "catch while catch-can" attitude that has gotten out of hand. It is unclear what effect it is having on UC at this point but it is a fact that outside relationships are disintegrating and sometimes disappearing. This can't be good in the long run.
The end is near vibes from your statement are terrifying. I'm intrigued to find out more.
