Support Arizona's Bid to Host Super Bowl LVII in 2023 Item 16 ClfY OMHCH REPORT Meeting Date: April 10,2018 General Plan Element: Economic Vitality General Plan Goal: Sustain Scottsdale as a tourist destination ACTION Support Arizona's Bid to Host Super Bowl LVIl in 2023. Adopt Resolution No. 11072 outlining the City of Scottsdale's intent to support Arizona's Bid to the National Football League for selection as the site of its Super Bowl LVIl in 2023 at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona and its Official Events to take place in various cities throughout Metropolitan Phoenix. BACKGROUND Cities throughout metropolitan Phoenix have cooperated effectively with the National Football League and each other to successfully host Super Bowl XXX in 1996, Super Bowl XLII in 2008 and Super Bowl XLIX in 2015. With each of these successful experiences in mind, the City of Scottsdale and cities throughout Metropolitan Phoenix once again could showcase our region as an anchor venue for one of the world's most prestigious sporting events. The Arizona Bid Committee is in the process of preparing its final bid this month and will present to the NFL in May. As part of the formal bid package, the NFL has requested a declaration of support from the City of Scottsdale (and various municipalities within Maricopa County) concerning the performance of reasonably necessary government services within its jurisdiction in connection with Super Bowl LVIl and related Official Events. The direct economic impact, goodwill generated, creation of temporary jobs, extensive television coverage, worldwide media exposure, and first-hand experiences of out-of town attendees, are generally regarded among the greatest benefits of hosting an event of this magnitude. During the most recent Super Bowl XLIX in 2015, Scottsdale hosted 16 NFL major events, several Host Committee events including the Media Party, and received extensive media coverage. Many corporate events and parties were also held throughout Scottsdale including ESPN's VIP party and A Taste of NFL at our WestWorld facilities. Additionally, the city provided event development funds for the Scottsdale Fan Fest that included live coverage by ESPN. The widespread exposure of Scottsdale's appealing lifestyle, its tourist attractions and activities, and favorable business climate also provided potential longer-term opportunities for increased tourism and business development. Action Taken _ City Council Report | Support Arizona's Bid to Host Super Bowl LVIl in 2023 ANALYSIS & ASSESSMENT As noted earlier, among the greatest benefits of hosting an event of this magnitude are direct economic impact, extensive television coverage, worldwide media exposure, creation of temporary jobs, and first-hand experiences of out-of-town attendees. Staff reviewed the results of studies completed based on Super Bowl XLIX and related Official Events; a few of the highlights include: • A study completed by the Seidman Research Institute, W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University determined that Super Bowl XLIX, the 2015 Pro Bowl and related events produced a direct spend of $295 million in the region. The expanded gross economic impact of $719.4 million within the region is the most impact of any special event ever held in Arizona. Also, according to the ASU study, more than 1 million people visited downtown Phoenix and 500,000 visited Scottsdale during the week leading up to Super Bowl XLIX. • According to a Super Bowl XLIX media tracking study by Repucom, which was commissioned by the Tourism & Events department, Scottsdale received extensive media coverage with a media value of $6.3 million. More than 83% of this value was due to exposure delivered through the Scottsdale Fan Fest via ESPN coverage, an event that was separately supported by bed tax funds. • As noted in Table 1 below, tourism related tax collections in January 2015 show an incremental fiscal impact of $1.3 million i.e. direct tax revenues to the City treasury over and above what was realized the year prior during the same month. Table 1. Tourism Indicators as reflected in January 2015 Tax Collections FY 2013/14 FY 2014/15 +/(-) YOY January Tax January Tax Change Additional Collections Collections Collection Bed Tax $1,461,090 $2,271,778 55% $810,698 Misc. Retail Tax $2,033,160 $2,179,813 7% $146,653 Restaurant Tax $1,226,489 $1,570,451 28% $343,962 $1,301,313 RESOURCE IMPACTS The initial support by the City of Scottsdale for the bid proposal to the NFL has no financial impact and requires no additional staffing. However, if Arizona's bid is selected to host Super Bowl LVIl and related events, the resolution states that the City Council would appropriate additional funds through the operating budget process for the fiscal year in which city services or support are to be provided. Page 2 of 3 City Council Report | Support Arizona's Bid to Host Super Bowl LVIl in 2023 OPTIONS & STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Tourism and Events Department recommends the adoption of Resolution No. 11072 outlining the City of Scottsdale's intent to support Arizona's Bid to the National Football League for selection as the site of its Super Bowl LVIl in 2023 at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona and its Official Events to take place in various cities throughout Metropolitan Phoenix.

  • Kareem Jackson, Ja'wuan James to Broncos
    Kareem Jackson, Ja’Wuan James to Broncos: Denver works late to secure deals By Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post March 12, 2019 Perhaps waiting to see how the free-agent market developed or focusing on specific targets, the Broncos took until Monday night to make their first two moves. And they were expensive additions. A league source confirmed the Broncos agreed to a three-year contract with Houston Texans cornerback/safety Kareem Jackson and a four-year deal with Miami Dolphins right tackle Ja’Wuan James. NFL Network reported Jackson’s deal will be worth $33 million ($23 million guaranteed). A source said James’ deal is worth more than $50 million, making him the league’s highest-paid right tackle. The Broncos addressed needs for an experienced and versatile player in the secondary and a pass protector for new quarterback Joe Flacco. Jackson, 30, and James, 26, can’t sign until Wednesday at 2 p.m. Combined with the acquisition of Flacco, it probably represents the big-splash additions for general manager John Elway. Jackson and James emerged shortly after Monday’s 10 a.m. opening of the negotiating window as the Broncos’ two main targets. Last year for Houston, Jackson started four games at safety before moving to cornerback for the final 12 games. He made a career-high 87 tackles plus two interceptions and 17 pass break-ups (tied for third in the NFL with Detroit’s Darius Slay). The Broncos have an opening at safety after releasing Darian Stewart last week, but new coach Vic Fangio could envision Jackson as a hybrid cornerback/safety depending on that week’s opponent and individual match-ups.

  • Super Bowl Xlix and Related Events Generate an Economic Impact of $719.4 Million According to Study Completed by Arizona State University
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: June 23, 2015 SUPER BOWL XLIX AND RELATED EVENTS GENERATE AN ECONOMIC IMPACT OF $719.4 MILLION ACCORDING TO STUDY COMPLETED BY ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY Phoenix, AZ - A study completed by the Seidman Research Institute, W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University, determined that Super Bowl XLIX, the 2015 Pro Bowl and related events produced a gross economic impact of $719.4 million in the region. The announcement was made today at The Governor’s Conference on Tourism at the JW Camelback Inn in Scottsdale. This is the largest economic impact of any special event ever held in the state of Arizona, as well as the highest for any Super Bowl for which publicly released figures are available. By comparison, Super Bowl XLII played at University of Phoenix Stadium in 2008 generated a gross economic impact of $500.6 million (2008 dollars) based on research also conducted by the W.P. Carey School of Business. “This is tremendous news for our economy and a strong testament to the exceptional work of everyone involved,” said Arizona Governor Doug Ducey. “The eyes of the world were on Arizona, and we delivered in a big way. I look forward to our state hosting many more successful championship games and major events in the future.” Commissioned by the Arizona Commerce Authority in partnership with the Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee, the study focused on the nine-day period from January 24th through February 1, 2015 coinciding with the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl which were played at University of Phoenix Stadium on January 25 and February 1, respectively.
