The Bears should leverage this situation as best as possible. It will definitely get the city and state to help kick in some funds. Otherwise the city and county can plan on losing 12% off of all ticket sales as well as all the sales tax from items sold in the stadium.
I just don’t see any possibility of doing that in IL. The problem is about $1 billion in related infrastructure costs, and nobody has the capacity for that.
Taxpayers have more than enough money according to the taxing bodies.
