Board seeks clarity on City of Palms demolition and $300K feasibility study
Summary
Staff told the board city leadership is awaiting legal sign‑off to begin stadium demolition at City of Palms; members also discussed a roughly $300,000 feasibility study intended to attract investors and clarify project scope.
Staff updated the advisory board that the city manager and legal counsel are coordinating to allow demolition work at the City of Palms stadium to proceed once counsel gives the green light.
Steve Weathers said he understood the manager's goal is to have at least a legal "green light by the end of the year" so initial work can begin. Board members also discussed a feasibility study — identified in the meeting as roughly $300,000 — which staff and members said would be necessary to demonstrate market demand and attract private investment before committing to major redevelopment. Members asked staff to obtain the scope of that feasibility study and report at the next meeting so the board can better understand whether the study covers structural integrity only or broader project feasibility.
