While our Local Governments’ team applies its resources and approach to a wide variety of Economic Development projects, it has developed particular experience and reputation for helping local governments define, develop and execute Economic Development projects that are driven by sports tourism. Sports Tourism projects have unique stakeholders, participants and impacts that when brought together increase the projects likelihood of coming about, and maximizing its economic and recreational benefit for the region in which it functions. From professional team stadium projects to destination amateur sports tournament complexes, our firm has helped local governments navigate the vast array of regulatory, legal and economic issues and helps bring the public and private sides of these projects together. When the financial attributes of these projects are carefully considered and included in our financial models, our local government clients and the private participants / stakeholders understand their economic impacts, minimize their capital and operational investments and more effectively work together to bring the project to life.
