Along with free transit and policing on event nights, the Calgary Flames owners asked for a veto on future Victoria Park developments and a cut of Stampede parking revenue as part of a new arena deal, Metro has learned.
On Thursday, Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation released their last arena proposal to the city, delivering a plan that would have seen them pony up $275 million for a new building with an additional $225 million being generated through a Community Revitalization Levy, which is a tax on new development in a specified area.
In a February letter to the city, the Flames outlined their additional requests, multiple sources confirmed to Metro. These requests were not in the document CSEC provided to media Thursday.
