Youth Sports is BIG Business
Powerful & growing sector of tourism industry:
• $15 billion/yr; growing to $30 billion in next 7-10 years.• Kept growing during Great Recession & prior recessions.• Labeled “recession-proof” by Forbes (2014).1
Memphis sports economy = $120 million, without a facility specifically designed for indoor youth sports competitions.
Annual economic impact of others:
• Gatlinburg’s Rocky Top Sports World - $35.4 million*• Oklahoma City - $42 million• Fort Myers, FL - $47.7 million• Pensacola, FL - $22.5 million• Myrtle Beach, SC - $186 million*• Hoover, AL - $27.5 million*
*Feasibility study conducted by SFA, consultant on Memphis project –all exceeded SFA’s original projections. 1 Cook, B.

sports complexes in U.S., as proposed.

• Premiere tracks mostly on east or west coasts.
• No indoor sports complex within a 210-mile radius.
• More playing court space than other regional facilities.
• Central national location with convenient access to N-S and E-W interstates and to airport.
Recent tournament in Hoover attracted 40 teams/400 youths and family from Memphis.

Opportunities to acquire land adjacent to site for parking.
City committed to identifying alternate parking spots & transit options for game days.
Mixed-Use• Hotel (80-key)• Retail (30-50,000 SF)• Restaurant• Residential
Possible development of 2nd garage & area west of Early Maxwell (with classrooms on upper
floors & school gym replaced) would be in future stage.
City would provide supportive infrastructure.

Private Development
These projects may be done in future if/as TDZ surpluses and other funds become available.
• Improvements to Tobey Park
• Additional structured parking on north end (driven by private developer)
• Iconic entrances & public art similar to the Bike Gate at Overton Park (pictured)
• Pipkin Building expanded to facilitate events & community gatherings

Transformation Phase 3: 2022 and on
Project Costs
• $95 - 100 million – Total Project Cost*
• $55 - 60 million – Cost of Sports Building & Garage*
• TDZ is largest/primary contributor = $40 - 50 million contribution to capital stack
• Remaining capital stack is dependent on & leveraged by existence of TDZ:• Naming Rights, Sponsorships, Philanthropy, Stakeholder
Contributions ($25 - 35 million)• Tax Credits ($4 - 5 million)• Transit contribution to garage ($2 - 4 million)• City infrastructure & park funds ($10 - 15 million)
*These are full project costs, including soft costs, furniture & equipment, escalation & contingency.
Financing Phase 2 TDZ: Tourism Development Zone
Convention Center & Tourism Development Financing Act of 1988.
Allows capture of sales tax increase above baseline amount, adjusted every year, to secure debt or fund projects for Qualified Public Use Facilities (QPUFs).
Fairgrounds (and Graceland) were designated as eligible projects for TDZs by State Administration in 2007.
Memphis has proven TDZ track record – exceeding projections from conservative analyses, a good steward of TDZ revenues, and a great partner with the State of Tennessee.
Memphis has last TDZ application pending in Tennessee but it sunsets at end of 2018.
New TDZBoundariesTDZ boundaries have been redrawn in accordance with State law:
• Residential areas excluded
• Commercial areas included
• Includes areas where Fairgrounds visitors likely to stay, eat & shop
Fairgrounds
Park/Airways/Lamar retail area
Old Melrose School
Union AveOverton Square
Cooper Young
Crosstown Broad Ave
2.97 square miles
TDZ Shapes
Pigeon Forge
Music City CenterNashville
Other TDZs have boundaries that are just as complicated or far more complicated than proposed Fairgrounds TDZ boundaries.
TDZ RevenuesTDZ revenues fueled by business growth and visitor spending.
Visitor spending breakdown:
• 100% of on-site spending captured by Fairgrounds TDZ
• 15% of off-site spending captured by Fairgrounds TDZ
• 75% of off-site spending not captured by TDZ, but inside Memphis/Shelby County
• 10% of off-site spending projected to be outside Shelby County
Projected Revenue Collections:
• Year 1 $ 284,062
• Year 5 $3,930,130
• Year 30 $5,886,987
• Cumulative 30 year total $133,792,622
Net present value $50 - 60 million (including costs of issuance)
TDZ Impact on State & Local Tax RevenuesNo loss in current revenues. State, City and Schools will continue to receive the same amount of sales tax revenue from the Zone as they do now (the “Baseline”) for 30 year life of TDZ.
• For every $100 in taxable sales, State gets $7 and $2.25 is split 50-50 between City & Schools (after admin fees).
• Baseline is adjusted each year by the percentage of growth in taxable sales County-wide (“the Adjustment”).
New sales taxes collected in Zone (the “Increment” ) are divided:
• 0.5% goes to Schools off the top.
• Rest used to pay construction costs for TDZ project
Taxes collected on visitor spending outside the TDZ offset any loss of taxes on natural growth occurring inside the TDZ. For example, Schools might lose an estimated $5.37 million in tax revenue over 30 years from natural growth inside the Zone, but they would gain an estimated $6.46 million from visitor spending outside the Zone.
Support of Council & Commission
State requires City Council resolution authorizing submission of revised application to State Building Commission and approving new Zone boundaries.
State requires County Commission – as local funder for schools – to send resolution expressing their opinion on project – whether in support, neutral or against.
We hope to have immense support from both bodies.

After Approval of TDZ
Approval of the TDZ is just the first step in assembling the project funding.
After approval, the City of Memphis can:• Obtain commitments from stakeholders, foundations, corporate sponsors, and others.• Determine developer, architect, management company, and tenants.
Multiple checkpoints along path of project finance:• Scrutiny by underwriters as bond issuance is prepared.• City Council must approve bond issuance.• State Building Commission must approve bond issuance and debt service schedule.
Opportunities for City to stop if not satisfied with project financing.
