Guest Moneyball Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 BTW they didn't show any sketches and didn't say if construction would start even if they didn't get the 30 mil this year. you would think that if they want to open in 2007 they will need to start this year.

BasesLoadedWalk Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 The interesting thing about those numbers is that the FO is set to chip in more than the city and county combined. It continues the general trend away from public financing back toward more private financing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotcorner Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 I've heard talk of a ticket surcharge of around $1 each that goes toward the stadium. I've always been for that idea. Tax the people who want to enjoy the stadium before you hit the general public... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
