Sports and Entertainment Facility
Attachment 1 Councillors’ Questions on Sports and Entertainment Facility COUNCILLOR SOHI Questions for Administration : 1. What are the timelines for projected growth around the arena? How many years would it take to generate $9.6 to $11.2 million in a projected uplift in incremental taxes? 2. Was the Community Revitalization Levy (CRL), or similar model of financing, used for building arenas in other cities? What were some of the negative or positive implications? 3. Are arenas exempted from property taxes? How much in estimated property tax revenue would the City of Edmonton collect if the proposed downtown arena paid property taxes? 4. As the CRL requires provincial approval, will the education portion of property tax be affected? 5. Have discussions taken place with the Province regarding the CRL model? 6. What role can (or will) the city administration play in determining who will operate the new arena. Will this decision be made by the Katz group or by the City? 7. What role can (or will) the administration play in regard to site selections? 8. What safe guards can be put in place to ensure that no new taxes would be required in the future to pay for debt servicing charges? 9. How does the proposed site fit into the City’s Downtown Plan? What impact will the arena will have on the Downtown Plan? 10. If city is the major financier of the arena, then why can the City not operate the arena and use the non hockey revenue to pay for the debt. 11.

2005 Annual Report
Preserving and Promoting Western Heritage and Values The Calgary Exhibition & Stampede is a volunteer supported, not-for-profi t organization that preserves and promotes western heritage and values. Our organization began as an agricultural fair in 1886, but continues to grow and evolve in step with Calgary. TABLE OF CONTENTS Organizational Highlights 01 Financial Report 07 Consolidated Financial Statements 10 Stampede Leadership 24 Our Volunteers 26 Full-time Staff 40 Sponsors 42 2005 Calgary Stampede Event Champions 45 1 ORGANIZATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS The Calgary Exhibition & Stampede had a remarkable 2005. It was a year of special celebration and signifi cant achievement, a year of embracing the past while pushing ahead toward a bold, new future. Our entire organization – from the 2,200 volunteers and 1,600 employees, to our many sponsors and community partners – should look back with pride, and look ahead with excitement. A MEMORABLE CENTENNIAL With the history of the Stampede so entwined with the history of Alberta, it was natural for our organization to embrace the province’s Centennial with a full year of initiatives that celebrated western heritage and values. Among our many Centennial highlights, we: established the Calgary Stampede Western Legacy Awards that honoured Dr. Frits Pannekoek, Ryan Perez, and Roy and Lenore McLean for their unique contributions to our heritage; conducted a youth essay contest that saw Alyssa Wheeler, Meredith Pritchard and Beth Anna Heslop each earn a place at the front of the 2005 Stampede Parade; unveiled -

Race and College Football in the Southwest, 1947-1976
UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE DESEGREGATING THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE: RACE AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL IN THE SOUTHWEST, 1947-1976 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By CHRISTOPHER R. DAVIS Norman, Oklahoma 2014 DESEGREGATING THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE: RACE AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL IN THE SOUTHWEST, 1947-1976 A DISSERTATION APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY BY ____________________________ Dr. Stephen H. Norwood, Chair ____________________________ Dr. Robert L. Griswold ____________________________ Dr. Ben Keppel ____________________________ Dr. Paul A. Gilje ____________________________ Dr. Ralph R. Hamerla © Copyright by CHRISTOPHER R. DAVIS 2014 All Rights Reserved. Acknowledgements In many ways, this dissertation represents the culmination of a lifelong passion for both sports and history. One of my most vivid early childhood memories comes from the fall of 1972 when, as a five year-old, I was reading the sports section of one of the Dallas newspapers at my grandparents’ breakfast table. I am not sure how much I comprehended, but one fact leaped clearly from the page—Nebraska had defeated Army by the seemingly incredible score of 77-7. Wild thoughts raced through my young mind. How could one team score so many points? How could they so thoroughly dominate an opponent? Just how bad was this Army outfit? How many touchdowns did it take to score seventy-seven points? I did not realize it at the time, but that was the day when I first understood concretely the concepts of multiplication and division. Nebraska scored eleven touchdowns I calculated (probably with some help from my grandfather) and my love of football and the sports page only grew from there. -
Thesis Vigour Danielsen Fredriksen Nordli NøStberg.Pdf
9,*285+($/7+ The ASC-Series Launch in Canada May 21, 2008 David M. Danielsen Joakim Fredriksen Espen Nordli Bjorn R. Nostberg Vigour Health The ASC-Series Launch in Canada EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report is part of the authors’ bachelor degree in International Marketing and analyzes the Canadian vitamins and dietary supplements (VDS) industry. Based on this analysis, the authors will be proposing how Vigour can enter the market. Vigour Health was founded in 2006 by Omar Paulsen Bekheet and John Ivar Andre and the goal was to introduce a new lifestyle concept that should be inventive in its approach. Vigour utilizes raw materials from the northern parts of Norway, and produces prescription-free, unique dietary supplements from perhaps the cleanest environment in the world. The company wants to export its Arctic Seaweed Complex series (ASC) to Canada, which has the following products in its portfolio: Pure:DETOX, Daily:PROTECTION and Figure:BALANCE. However, Vigour is currently in the process of launching their products in Norway and has therefore a rather limited budget to support their market entry in Canada. The first section of the report describes the research problem, research objectives and methodology. It further outlines more about Vigour and the company’s strengths and weaknesses, before it describes the Canadian VDS industry with an emphasis on distribution channels. Based on the findings, the authors have identified different courses of action and make a recommendation at the end of the report. Methodology The report is based on both primary and secondary data. Secondary sources that were used consist of online articles, books, newspapers and reports. -
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) Is a Non-Partisan, Non-Profit Advocacy Organization Committed to Lower Taxes, Less Waste and More Government Accountability
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) is a non-partisan, non-profit advocacy organization committed to lower taxes, less waste and more government accountability. We have 74,000 supporters nation-wide, with 16,000 of them here in Alberta. During elections, we regularly provide information to our supporters as to where various candidates stand on issues important to them. As such we have prepared a five question survey for you to complete. Your response will be released publicly on our website: www.taxpayer.com as well as sent directly to our supporters in Edmonton. Please complete the following survey and fax it back to 1-877-482-1744 or e-mail it to [email protected] by Tuesday, October 5th. • Do you support limiting annual property tax bill increases to Edmonton’s inflation rate? Yes No Undecided Note: In past years, Epcor has returned to the city enough money to cover up to a quarter of our budget. If we allow the sale of this monopoly to private interests, we are by default asking for a 25% tax increase. I do not believe this should happen, and the citizens of Edmonton need to realize what is at stake. • Do you support spending city tax dollars on bidding for and hosting Expo 2017? Yes No Undecided • Do you support using municipal tax dollars (either through a transparent grant or loan or through the Community Revitalization Levy (CRL) scheme) to fund all or a portion of the construction of a new NHL arena/entertainment facility? Yes No Undecided Note: I do not believe that public money should be given to businesses if the money will not be returned to the city later. -
