Stadium Construction:• Basketball and hockey are more compatible in terms of

buliding designs then baseball and football.o For this reason it is critical to develep arenas capable

of hosting both indoor and outdoor sports.• It is important to have two prime sport tenants.• Baseball only stadiums became obsolete during the

1960's due to not having wide enough seats, leg room, and not having easy access to concession stands.o Due to this new stadiums were built during 1960-1970

   

Page 9: Facility Mangement

 • Financing the facilites has become a probelm for owners

because of the owners desire to use facility revenues to compete for free agent players and boost their profits • Some cities have constructed facilities that will provide

team owners the design and revenue streams they need to be successful

• Team owners are seeking lucrative leases that provide revunues from four sources: prefered seating, parking, concessions, and staduim sponsorships

Page 10: Facility Mangement

 • Team owners flee their traditional locations for grener

pastures because of more profitable facility deals• The facility in which a professional team plays has the

most significant impact on its profitablity and is often its primary consideration in choosing to reamain or move to a new location

Page 11: Facility Mangement

 • Owners Decided multipurpose facilities were not good

enough• Stadiums designed for both baseball and football ended

up being desirable for neither sport• The new trend this decade is single purpose stadiums• The Columbus Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio was the

first  soccer only venue in the United States• It has become a model for all MLS franchises

Facility Financing

 

Page 13: Facility Mangement

How to Finance the Facility• The ways teams finance and build their venues include public

and private finance.o These two options are voted on by citizens.

• Public Financeo Citizens of the town or city pay money through taxes to help

pay for the venue.• Private Finance

o The team and its owners pay for the building of the venue.o Pladeging facility revenue streams to pay for debt service or

mortage expenses takes revenue away from profits.• Stadium/Arena financing has fluxuated over the years between

public and private. 

Page 14: Facility Mangement

Public vs. Private• Public Finance

o Tax Payers  poll to either pay or not pay for the new building.

o  If original taxes and this would pay for the venue.

o common publicly financed venues Convention centers

and other buildings that help or contribute to citizens. 

 

• Private Financingo If citizens reject public

financing it is up to the team and their managers to finance the team.

o  Often vote is not approved for public financing then they try to open the business privately.

make money to pay off the debto If facility has a down year financially, there may not be

enough money to make debt payments

Taxes

 

Page 19: Facility Mangement

Taxes ContinuedWhen a professional team decides to build a stadium it is a very costly process, that is why it is necessary for many different payment options.     One of these types of payment options is taxes, some of the different types of taxes that can be imposed are such as property taxes; for those who live in the area of the stadium. Also they could impose a higher sales tax, taxing both the citizens and the tourists, this type of tax is more supported by the citizens of the area.
