The Charlotte City Council on Monday voted 5-2 to lease a city-owned gravel lot next to the Spectrum Center to the Charlotte Hornets. The team plans to build a new practice facility on the site.
The lease will be $10 a year for 99 years.
The deal also gives the city access to 125 parking spaces in a new parking structure — but the city will have to pay the team $150,000 a year.
LaWana Mayfield and Renee Johnson voted no.
