North Carolina Approves Bill For Bank Of America Stadium Upgrades
The North Carolina Senate today approved a bill that allows the city of Charlotte "to use occupancy taxes now earmarked for the Charlotte Convention Center for upgrades to Bank of America Stadium." The bill, which already passed the House vote, "now becomes law." However, the measure "falls short of what the Panthers – and the city – originally wanted" (CHARLOTTEOBSERVER.com, 4/11).
