Quote:
Arlington is paying for its portion of the stadium with a half-cent sales tax, 2 percent hotel occupancy tax and 5 percent car rental tax. Arlington officials, however, must juggle their finances to accommodate the new stadium.
The taxes set aside for stadium financing are still used to pay the city's portion of the Dallas Cowboys' $1.2 billion stadium that opened in 2009.

This is how Arlington is paying for it.
Essentially tax visitors to the city with the hotel and car tax which in essence is a tax burden mostly placed on businesses.
And everyone with a .5% sales tax.
