From Randi F. Marshall at Newsday:
Lighthouse partners Charles Wang and Scott Rechler said Thursday they are no longer willing to change their plans to develop the land around Nassau Coliseum.
“This is not the point to start negotiating anything,” Wang said Thursday, five years after unveiling the project. “It’s yes or no.”
Even amid the fanfare of Thursday’s agreement on a proposed lease between the developers and Nassau County, anger and frustration took center stage. Wang, Rechler and County Executive Thomas Suozzi pointed fingers at Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray and the town board for delaying the project and not trying to meet Wang’s Oct. 3 deadline for significant progress on the project.
“Shame on those folks who would stop this project from getting done,” Suozzi said.

Wang said if Murray, a Republican, and the board did not give any answer, he “would construe that as a no.”
