Stars close to
new arena deal
DALLAS (AP) — The deal to'
build a $230 million basketball and
hockey arena in downtown Dallas (
calls for the current arena to be
torn down a year after its replace
ment opens.
The new arena deal was an
nounced Friday with the city offer
ing $110 million for the arena and
up to $15 million in infrastructure.
The teams will put up $105 million
for the new building and will be re
sponsible for cost overruns.
Don Hicks, who owns the Dallas
Stars, and Ross Perot Jr., who owns i
the Dallas Mavericks, want a new ,
facility with luxury suites that will
generate more revenue. The exact
site has yet to be determined.
But the demolition of Reunion
Arena, on which the city still owes
about $28 million, could draw ex
tra public resistance to the new
arena deal. f
“You mean to tell me a building
18 years old can’t be reconstituted
for some use or another?” former
City Council member Jerry Banos 1
told The Dallas Morning News.
“Seems stupid. They’d never doit
in the private sector.”
According to the letter of intent
between the teams and the city,
razing of Reunion Arena is certain.
The only question is whethertlie
city or the teams will bear thecost.
The teams will pay only if Lot La
parking lot between ReunionAre
na and the Dallas ConventionCen-
ter, is chosen for the new facility
Mayor Ron Kirk has set a special
City Council meeting for Mond:
to consider the arena deal. Aeon:
cil vote is scheduled on Wednesd:
The council vote will be ora
resolution setting the stage force
Jan. 17 referendum on thefinar
ing plan that will include high::
tourist taxes.
The city plans to boost fit
rental tax 5 percentage pointsa:!
the hotel room tax 2 percent::;
points. That would raise abo:
$11.3 million a year.
