The City of Champions Revitalization Project would create a vibrant new city center for Inglewood at the Hollywood Park site, complete with:
A world-class sports stadium and performance venue
New shopping & dining options
Entertainment attractions
High-quality office space
Residential properties
25 acres of public parks and open space
This new development will create thousands of construction an
d permanent jobs in Inglewood, and the best part is that hiring preference for stadium jobs will be given to local residents. Job-training will be provided as well, so our local people are prepared to work. The project is expected to generate hundreds of millions of dollars – you read that correctly – in new economic activity in Inglewood each year. Local businesses will prosper from all that new commerce, fueling even more revitalization. The City will benefit, too, by receiving tens of millions of dollars in new revenues each year. Those funds can help balance the budget, improve and expand city services, and enhance public safety. Revenues from the project will also fund new after-school activities, such as mentoring and anti-gang programs. Also included in the project is a comprehensive infrastructure improvement plan that will modernize traffic systems and upgrade public streets in and around the new site, among other enhancements. This is really a win-win for Inglewood. And that’s why you should join me and hundreds of others, including faith leaders, business owners, educators, civic organizations and clubs, and regular folks, who are supporting the Revitalization Project.
