Saddledome capital improvements in the BidCo Hosting Plan:
- Accessibility upgrades for seating and washrooms
- Upgrades to power and field-of play lighting as required
- Ice plant re-commissioning
- Minor finish upgrades to concourse, club and suite levels
- Structural and mechanical capital maintenance
In the City Council Q&A session today, Shane Keating asked why the plan didn't include the new arena. It was confirmed that if a new arena is built, the hosting plan can be revised to incorporate it. Nenshi commented that in his opinion, it doesn't make sense to build a mid-sized arena for the Olympics and would make more sense to reallocate that money for other facilities.
