The West Henderson Fieldhouse will partner with KemperSports to finance the project. City officials are hopeful this public-private partnership will allow them to provide residents with recreational amenities without a long-term financial impact to taxpayers. Henderson residents will also be eligible for a 20% discount on events and activities.
The City of Henderson also shared its forecast for the project’s economic impact, projecting over 200 permanent jobs, $1.5 million in annual tax revenue, $10.7 million in wages and salaries, and over $39 million in annual total economic output.
City officials state KemperSports will contribute $10 million to the project’s $70 million total cost, with the remaining costs funded through the Public Infrastructure Bond Sale, West Henderson Development Fund, and City Municipal Facilities Fund.
