And it is almost guaranteed that the city would not rezone for a stadium.
The bus barns land is the most valuable land in Victoria Park. The city is looking to maximize property tax uplift from the event center.
Building a stadium on the prime land that will contribute little or no property taxes for the city hurts the economic benefit the city projected for the event center and CRL.
