Aug. 29--TAMPA -- Jacob "Booky" Buchman, the man who stood up at a city council meeting last week and offered to pay more than $4 million for a stake in Centro Ybor, made his deal official Tuesday.
Buchman's attorney, Bob Warchola, sent a letter to the city Tuesday in which he outlined the eight conditions they want met before Buchman makes good on his money.
City Attorney David Smith, however, says several of the conditions are impossible to meet and questions whether the offer was made in good faith.
"It's unacceptable," Smith said.
Buchman declined to comment.
"It's a written offer," his attorney said. "The city can accept or reject it."
