Full recap of what was announced.

“Project does NOT rely on NEW taxes, it would be self-funding, IN any given year shortfalls would be covered by the teams. NO Public subsidies. The Proposal is built with understanding of having both NBA and NHL teams in the facility.

The Proposal is to construct an arena in the SODO area that would accomadate NHL, NBA & Concert events, Existing taxes to be used toward the facility will only use revenue streams created by the building itself.
Intresting turn of events. Sounds like the majority of the project will be self funded. No new taxes for the Seattle/King County area. The context of the statement sounds like it's ready to go.

Seattle Coyotes for the 2012-13 season?
