Fox fives Elizabeth Watts is live in our newsroom with what she has learned. I spoke with a sands Corp Spokesperson who confirms theyre looking into building a billion dollar stadium on unlv owned land near campus. And tomorrow the owner of the Oakland Raiders is meeting with Sheldon Adelson at adelsons request. He wants to build a 60thousand seat, domed state of the art stadium that would be home to unlvs Football Team and sporting events year round. The location would be the 42 acres of land unlv owns near campus. Its on koval. The sands says the Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure committee is meeting in the middle of this year to give suggestions to the governor on prioritizing tourism improvement projects in Southern Nevada. They believe nothing would move that needle more than a new world class stadium. So the sands may seek legislative approval for hotel room taxes that support the lvcva to be diverted to the project. The lvcva said in a statement it looks forward to the project being presented. And any new facilities that will attract more visitors is a positive for our community. Unlvs president released a statement. Saying as previously stated in Public Meetings the unlv site has tremendous value. And says no decision has been made on how the property will be used. But he said if a Publicprivate Partnership can be formed that includes the development of a new special events stadium with little or no cost to unlv. And they can use the facility. It would be of great value to unlv. Newsroom ew ffn llv. The raiders pulled a bid to move to la earlier this month because the team didnt have nfl support.
