The Boulevard Mixed-Use Project & Stadium

Summary

The Commission approved the CUP for a 6,000-seat stadium, 380-room hotel-casino and retail plaza on the former Corwin Ford site on Kietzke Lane — the biggest development vote of the night. Neighbors raised noise, traffic, rent increases and the loss of a nearby grocery store; the Commission added conditions on noise studies, RSCVA shared parking and event-day traffic management.
