It isn't an issue of just the City and Airport Authority dragging their feet but rather the airlines.

To help defray building and maintenance costs MCO assesses so-called 'signatory' airlines [supposedly only the biggest airlines serving MCO] to pay these expenses. In exchange the airlines get a huge say in when, or if, any capital projects get the go ahead.

As long as VS, BA, LF, WN, B6, and FL are willing to put up with the current conditions there will be no new south/international terminal complex.
