  • Pima County Begins Construction on New Soccer Stadium
    Pima County begins construction on new soccer stadium In the city of Tucson, soccer is not considered the sport of choice. In terms of attending a sporting event, that distinction belongs to University of Arizona men’s basketball, football or baseball. In terms of leisure, it belongs to golf. However, the fastest growing sport in the United States could be the solution to overcoming a nearly $1 million revenue deficit in a special taxing district of Pima County. Construction began April 25 on a new soccer stadium at the Kino Sports Complex as part of the Kino North Fields Modification Project. The construction of North Stadium, which will be operated and occupied by local semi-professional team FC Tucson, started a little over a month after the Pima County Board of Supervisors voted to provide $2.8 million to fund the creation of a 2,000-seat stadium, concession stands, a scoreboard and restrooms. North Stadium will be ready in time for FC Tucson’s 2014 season. This is phase two of a larger project to repurpose the Kino Sports Complex in an attempt to make up for revenue lost from the departure of Major League Baseball spring training. The goal is to make the complex more soccer-friendly by converting several baseball diamonds into soccer fields. “Pima County is investing $2.8 million in a new stadium because we believe this public-private partnership will bring children and families together, and help serve as an economic boost for our region by bringing more professional and youth soccer to the Kino Sports Complex,” said Richard Elias, Pima County District Five Supervisor.

  • July 6, 2021 Consent Calendar Item
    July 6, 2021 Consent Calendar Item #12 - Knott Development Inc., Amendment No. 1 for Master Development Partnership Agreement for the Kino Sports & Entertainment Complex On June 8, 2021 I provided you with a memorandum transmitting final drafts of the Kino District Business Plan and Master Developer Partnership Agreement (MDPA) for the proposed Kino District project at the Kino Sports & Entertainment Complex. The Board of Supervisors approved a Predevelopment Services Agreement for this project on April 20, 2021. An amendment to this agreement in the form of the MDPA has been scheduled for consideration by the Board on July 6, 2021. The following information summarizes key aspects of the proposal. Project Elements The existing Kino Complex, including the Kino Environmental Restoration Project (KERP), is comprised of approximately 475 acres lying north and south of Ajo Way and south of Interstate 10. The nearly 90-acre site for the proposed Knott Development Kino District comprises less than 20 percent of the total acreage of the Kino Complex, yet it represents an exciting opportunity to conclude the decades-long enhancement of the Kino Complex by introducing new anchor and support elements that supplement and complement the existing Kino Complex facilities. As previously outlined, and detailed in the Business Plan, the Kino District proposal includes the following Anchor Elements: • Iceplex with 3 full sheets of ice; • Fieldhouse with 8 full sized basketball courts, convertible to 16 indoor volleyball courts and configurable for soccer, lacrosse and other indoor sports; • Multi-purpose indoor event facility currently proposed with 6,000 seats; • An 8,000 seat outdoor multipurpose stadium with maximum capacity of 10,000; and • Parking Garage structure with 2,000 parking stalls.
