The Buffalo Common Council and Erie County Legislature have announced public hearings on the proposed Buffalo Bills stadium. To date, Pegula Sports & Entertainment have asked for a new stadium to be 100% publicly funded. Many news outlets have reported that Pegula Sports & Entertainment is seeking $1.4 billion in taxpayer assistance, including grants and tax breaks, to fund a new stadium.

While the new stadium will be county-owned, many residents and elected officials object to it being fully taxpayer-funded.

On Tuesday, November 9 at 5:30pm, Buffalo Common Council is inviting residents to a public hearing to share in particular where they would like the new stadium to be located. Join the hearing in Buffalo Common Council Chambers, 65 Niagara Square (City Hall), 13th floor.

The Erie County Legislature has announced three public hearings on the proposed stadium: 

  • Monday, December 6, 2021at 6:00 pm, Erie Community College City Campus
    Auditorium, Old Post Office Building Buffalo, NY.
  • Tuesday, December 7, 2021 at 6:00 pm, Erie Community College North Campus
    Auditorium, Gleasner Hall (adjacent to Youngs Road), Williamsville, NY.
  • Wednesday, December 8, 2021 at 6:00 pm, Erie Community College South Campus Lecture Hall Room 5102, Building 5, Orchard Park, NY.
