It appears that the Chicago Bears ' proposal for a new lakefront stadium has gained unexpected support. Rosemont 's mayor, Bradley Stephens, who also holds a position as a state lawmaker, has publicly endorsed the move, despite some voiced concerns.He expressed his support for the Bears ' plan, which involves a combination of public subsidies and $2 billion of the team's funds to construct a large new domed stadium on the lakefront.
Pritzker and leaders from both the House and Senate questioned the allocation of public tax dollars to assist an NFL team with significant financial resources.The Bears are proposing to extend the downtown hotel tax by two percent to finance part of the project, along with additional funds for infrastructure upgrades.However, Mayor Stephens, who serves as both the Mayor of Rosemont and the Assistant Republican House Minority Leader in Springfield, believes it is a worthwhile investment.
