    Feasibility Analysis of a Potential New State Fairgrounds in Manchester, Tennessee 1 July 14, 2017 Feasibility Study of a Potential New State Fairgrounds Feasibility Fairgrounds StudyNew State Potential of a Tennessee Manchester, in INTRODUCTION July 14, 2017 Mr. Bo Roberts Chairman Tennessee State Fair and Exposition Commission 414 Union Street, Suite 1105 Nashville, Tennessee 37219 Dear Mr. Roberts: Conventions, Sports & Leisure International (CSL) is pleased to have completed our market, financial and economic feasibility analysis of a new fairgrounds complex at the Bonnaroo site in Manchester that would be a new home to the Tennessee State Fair. The attached document presents our research, analysis and findings and is intended to assist the Tennessee State Fair and Exposition Commission (Commission) and other stakeholders in evaluating the viability of the project. The analysis presented in this report is based on estimates, assumptions and other information developed from industry research, data provided by the study’s stakeholders, surveys of potential facility users and local representatives, discussions with industry participants and analysis of competitive/comparable facilities and communities. The sources of information, the methods employed, and the basis of significant estimates and assumptions are stated in this report. Some assumptions inevitably will not materialize and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. Therefore, actual results achieved will vary from those described and the variations may be material. The findings presented herein are based on analysis of present and near-term conditions in Tennessee as well as existing interest levels by the potential base of users of the facility project. Any significant future changes in the characteristics of the local community, such as growth in population, corporate inventory, competitive inventory and visitor amenities/attractions, could materially impact the key market conclusions developed as a part of this study.

DATE: As soon as possible / co.-,ve11e.s:. t ltJ:co o.w. ) � RECOMMENDED BY: Frank Moore �- �$� BACKGROUND: It is now apparent that an additional call by you to Congressman Bolling will be necessary to get the Hospital Cost Containment bill on the House floor this week. The Speaker has also agreed to talk to Bolling. There are several theories why Bolling is reluctant at this time to bring the bill to the floor. All agree, however, that your call is essential at this time. TALKING POINTS: 1. I want to thank you for your con­ siderable efforts on behalf of the cost containment bill thus far. You have given the bill a fair hearing and done your best to prepare the bill for floor consideration. 2. I strongly believe that the bill should come to�the floor this week. Our experience has been that we have lost strength over district work periods. If the bill is not disposed of before the Thanksgiving recess, Congressmen will be subject to intense lobbying on their home turf.
