Cowboys plan new
Mmmmmma
DALLAS (AP) — America's
team still apparently wants to
put Dallas back in the Cowboys'
name, pushing for a plan to
finance a new $l billion stadium
development in the city partly
with hotel and rental car taxes.
Cowboys vice president
Stephen Jones, who met with
Dallas Mayor Laura Miller on
Tuesday to discuss the Fair Park
site, said the team was close to
announcing its location but
would not reveal any details.
Several Dallas City Council
members said this week that
they believe the team will
announce plans to move back to
Fair Park just southeast of
downtown, where the Cowboys
played until moving to suburban
Irving’s Texas Stadium in 1971.
But the plan continues to hinge
on raising up to $400 million of
the project through taxes.
“It’d be a good investment,”
Jones said of the $400 million.
“Obviously, the Dallas
Cowboys will be one tenant.
There are a lot of other people
beyond the Dallas Cowboys that
are going to be involved.”
Cowboys representatives, in
meetings with Dallas County
commissioners Monday and
Tuesday, “talked about the kind of
global support they arc getting
across the board for Fair Park,”
said Commissioner Mike Cantrell.
The team's political advisers
in the last several weeks com
missioned a poll that showed
support for a taxpayer-financed
stadium at Fair Park, county
officials said. They said the poll
showed that 58 percent of
respondents supported financing
for a Fair Park stadium.
“The survey came back very
favorable for Fair Park.”
Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield
told The Dallas Morning News in
Wednesday’s editions. “They
said they would bring a proposal
back pretty quickly.”
He and several other com-
