Overview
- Team executives set a first planning session with consultant JLL for Thursday to sequence work and bring architects on board, targeting most major projects within five to six years.
- Priority fixes identified by the club include the ballpark’s HVAC system, roof repairs, pipes and concrete work, plus new video and ribbon boards.
- Gov. Katie Hobbs held a ceremonial signing at Chase Field on Sept. 3, though the bill was signed into law in June after legislative approval.
- The current lease runs through 2027, and negotiations are expected for a longer-term agreement that team leadership says could extend roughly 30 years.
- Funding comes from recaptured sales taxes generated at Chase Field and adjacent properties, which the team estimates at $20 million to $25 million annually, with a revamped stadium district board to be appointed under the law.
