Downtown Arena Revitalization Act of 2024

The Downtown Arena Revitalization Act of 2024 authorizes the District of Columbia government to enter into new agreements with DC Arena L.P. to redevelop and operate the downtown arena. This legislation approves a development and financing deal, a lease for the property, and a purchase agreement for the arena's improvements, allowing the Mayor to implement these terms. The bill also grants the Mayor authority to issue easements for the property and lease the airspace above it to the arena operator at no cost. Additionally, it continues existing tax breaks for the project and permits the addition of extra signage on the arena.
