You "fight for your territory" in business in private, not play it off in the media to try to leverage someone else. It POes them. You conduct your business with who's in charge of doing the deal, the LBGPA in this case, NOT the City Council.
Heitzler tried this and lost Michigan. Heitzler tried this and lost Las Vegas as an HQ. Pook tried this numerous ways. There's not one time when it's worked in this scenario.
Blasting off threats to the public will be met with hostility every time. KK set the battle lines. "You'll see what I do to you if you go with those guys." The LBGPA is put in the position of acquiescence or battle. If I'm Michaelian, I don't get pushed around like this.
