Las Vegas Oakland Raiders Stadium Will Give No Tax Revenue To City, County In Proposal
Las Vegas Oakland Raiders Stadium Will Give No Tax Revenue To City, County In Proposal
The Las Vegas Sands and Majestic Realty Oakland / Las Vegas Raiders Stadium Economic and Fiscal Impact document that is part of the information for the May 26th Southern Nevada Tourism and Infrastructure Commission was written to fool public officials. It promises tax revenue by the millions but then one small report section near the end of it calls for a tax increment revenue district. That area will collect all tax revenue and give it to the proposed stadium authority that is ran by the developer - in this proposal. So the City of Las Vegas and Clark County will not get tax revenue from the project if they go along with the tax increment revenue financing proposal. Oh and that is on top of the other $750 million the Las Vegas Sands and Majestic people want from an increase in the hotel tax. Greedy.

Oakland Officials To Present Stadium Land Proposal To Oakland Raiders In Weeks
Oakland Officials To Present Stadium Land Proposal To Oakland Raiders In Weeks
According to conversations and texts I have had with City Of Oakland and County Of Alameda Officials, after The NFL Spring Meeting in Charlotte, Mayor of Oakland, City, Alameda County, Coliseum Officials have got into a high gear of stadium-related meetings. Already the Mayor and the Councilmember Larry Reid have talked as well as called Alameda County Supervisor Scott Haggerty. The result will be a planned giant meeting to be held next week and with the objective of coming to one voice on a land deal proposal to the Oakland Raiders. I am told the desire is to set a meeting with The Raiders within the next two or three weeks. What the officials have done is determined to meet and solve head on the problems that have stood in the way of getting a stadium deal done with the Raiders. The biggest news here is that Oakland and Alameda County have made a concerted effort to meet and speak to The Raiders with one voice. Once that meeting is held next week the East Bay Entities will try and set a time to meet with the Oakland Raiders and make a presentation to them and get their feedback. Stay tuned.
