Allegiant Stadium Gets Occupancy Certificate Before "MNF" Opener

Amendments were made to Allegiant Stadium agreements that lengthened them all by one yearGETTY IMAGES

Las Vegas Stadium Co. COO Don Webb said that Allegiant Stadium "received its unconditional permit Aug. 31, just one-month after work on the stadium was substantially completed and temporary certificate of occupancy was issued," according to Mick Akers of the LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL. The stadium's budget increased to $2.02B "after some third-party activations came online." Webb said that the number is "expected to grow" about $10M more, as $36.6M of a planned $47.4M of third-party work "has been completed." The Las Vegas Stadium Authority on Thursday "approved the number of amendments to stadium agreements that lengthened them all by one year." The extensions were requested by the Raiders "to give fans the benefit of a full 30 years since fans won't be allowed to attend games at the new stadium this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic." The Raiders' non-relocation clause, the Raiders' stadium lease and team-use agreements, as well as UNLV's joint-use agreement, "were all extended to 31 years" (LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 9/18).
