Chicago Mayor Proposes $2.2 Billion Plan To Entice NFL Team To Stay; Bears Moving On To Safer Suburb

According to DailyWire:
“On Monday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot proposed a $900 million to $2.2 billion Hail Mary offer to convince the Bears to stay in their home stadium of over 50 years.
 
However, the Chicago Bears stated in a press release earlier this month that they wouldn’t consider any other offers, even for their home stadium, Soldier Field. The NFL team reaffirmed that sentiment to ESPN this week, noting that they were set on moving to another location over 30 miles away.
 
“As part of our mutual agreement with the seller of that property, we are not pursuing alternative stadium deals or sites, including renovations to Soldier Field, while we are under contract,” stated the team.
 
The Bears plan to move to Arlington Park, the longtime site of Churchill Downs’ thoroughbred racing in Arlington Heights. That area experiences well below the national median of crime levels, according to multiple crime statistic analyses. Census data reports that the area has a median household income of over $100,200, and just over four percent of residents were in poverty.
 
Comparatively, the city of Chicago suffers from high crime rates characterized by record numbers of shootings. Census data revealed that the city had a median household income of nearly $62,100, and over 17 percent of residents were in poverty.
 
Along with the Bears’ definitive statement, Lightfoot revealed to AP News that the team refused to meet with her.
 
Even so, Lightfoot hasn’t slowed on her attempts to further negotiations. Lightfoot explained in Monday’s press release that the $900 million to $2.2 billion would cover three different renovation options that could result in either a fully-enclosed stadium, a dome stadium, or a multi-purpose stadium suitable for soccer games and concerts.
 
Lightfoot noted that the first two options were proposed with the Bears in mind. She asserted that the Bears would save an estimated $1 to $1.5 billion in costs if they remained with Soldier Field rather than moving on to Arlington Park.
 
The mayor also launched a website, “Re-Imagine Soldier Field,” as part of her last-ditch effort
