"I assure you that my number one priority is protecting the interest of the city of Springfield," the mayor said in a statement issued Thursday. “Our original valuation of this market simply was off — full stop,” he said."We thought there would be more business here than ultimately materialized — scale, scope, etc. And so, it is what it is. And so we're pushing forward. We're trying to make the very best of it,” Hornbuckle said.
