ST. LOUIS BOARD OF ALDERMEN APPROVE RESOLUTION FOR STADIUM PROPOSAL: The St. Louis City Board of Aldermen approved a resolution for details for the proposed soccer stadium that would host a MLS team for St. Louis. The vote was 24-2 in favor.
The resolution outlines a framework and expectations for tax incentives for construction of the stadium. The construction itself will be financed by both the Taylor family of Enterprise Leasing and Jim Kavanaugh, president of both World Wide Technologies, Inc., and Saint Louis FC of the United Soccer League Championship, the second tier league of American professional soccer.
The ordinances that actually create the tax incentives and breaks will need to be passed by the Board at a later time.
