The Moda Center remains top of mind as we approach the City's August 12th vote on a term sheet, but how can we reach a fair deal for Portlanders? What are the potential costs and benefits of publicly financing stadiums? How does the draft Moda terms compare to deals in other cities?
Join co-hosts Portland City Councilors Angelita Morillo and Mitch Green for an insightful and timely webinar on the Moda Center renovation with sports economists, editors, and professors J.C. Bradbury and Victor Matheson.
We'll dive into the history of public financing of sports venues, impacts of professional sports franchises on local economies, and what it means for public funds to be used for the Moda Center renovation.
