‘”Starting this out, it’s all a journey. It’s definitely a marathon, it’s not a sprint,” said Erie County’s Commissioner for the Department of Public Works, Bill Geary on Wednesday. “The expectation is we can get through this, but there are so many different aspects to know, like what Chair [April] Baskin did with the community benefits agreement. There’s so many other aspects of this stadium that are going to have residual effects in this community for years to come, long after I’m gone, and most of the people that are here today. We should be proud of that, and we should also know the Buffalo Bills, as a franchise, will be here for 30 years.”‘
