The Jaguars released their first look at the planned 'Stadium for the Future' Wednesday. Here's everything you need to know before the town halls start.
Lamping said there were two potential options for home games that would affect both the construction timeline and the overall cost.
Construction could go from start to finish, lasting around two years, Lamping said. During that time, the team could potentially play home games at the University of Florida's stadium in Gainesville, Camping World Stadium in Orlando or even modify the University of North Florida's Hodges Stadium. Making a local venue like Hodges work for an NFL game would cost between $125 million and $130 million, Lamping said. The Florida-Georgia and Gator Bowl games would also have to relocate for the two years.
The team could continue to play at TIAA Bank around construction, but it would take twice as long and seating would be at limited capacity, Lamping said, adding about $190 million to the cost.Team management is hosting 14 town hall meetings across the city over a 10 day span, starting June 12. Residents can ask questions and give suggestions before the team goes to the city to start official negotiations.
