NFL approves Bills’ new stadium proposal

Posted on March 28, 2022May 4, 2022 by Santiago Leon

NFL unanimously approves proposal for Buffalo Bills’ new $1.4 billion stadium, while the team also reached an agreement with the State of New York and Erie County on a new 30-year lease for the stadium.

The agreement is for a 30-year lease on the stadium that is set to begin in 2026.

“We took another step today to solidify our collective goal of constructing a new stadium for the Buffalo Bills in Orchard Park,” Bills owners Terry and Kim Pegula said in a statement. “We are grateful for the time, efforts and unwavering commitment made by Governor [Kathy] Hochul and her team throughout this process. While there are more hurdles to clear before getting to the finish line, we feel our public-private partnership between New York State, Erie County, led by County Executive Mark Poloncarz, and the National Football League will get us there.”

The NFL and the Bills will contribute $550 million to match a combined $850 million in public funding. $600 million will come from New York state, while Erie County is set to provide $250 million. The economic and tax impacts generated from the team will support more than 100% of the public share of the cost.
