A newly designed tower in tront of the arena is being planned which needs to be produced with the actual name of the arena, It is for this reason that we asked George Hearst - Publisher of the Times Union to meet back in November to begin discussions in order to come up with mutually acceptable terms to Amend & Restate the current agreement, which will allow the current TU Center signs in the atrium to be moved to the Market Street side of the building and a confirmation and acceptance of this agreement by the legislature will ensure that the designs produced by Synthesis can go out to bid so the work can startin late-spring/early summer. This plan will also allow the atrium project fo be completed close to the completion date of the convention center in 2017, George Hearst was understanding of the need to finalize a mutually acceptable deal that also allows the architects with legislative approval to design the signs with the current name of the arena. Therefore, the first year of the Amended & Restated Agreement (January 1 - December 31, 2016) will utilize the new terms as set forth above. Because of the need to finalize the extension of the current agreement to enable the atrium project to continue without delay, the final year of the current agreement shall be changed to be subject to the new financial terms and will be the first year of the Amended & Restated Agreement with the Times Union/Hearst Corp, SUMMARY: For the next five (5) years the Times Union Center will net approximately $350,000 per year, which will help keep net operating profits at a high level. The last time that Albany County went out to bid in hopes of getting bids for the naming rights, no bids were received, [t was only after such bid process ended that a call came to us from the Publisher of the Times Union expressing interest in the name of the arena, The relationship between SMG, which operates the arena and the Times Union newspaper, has been excellent and the community has grown used to calling the arena the Times Union Center after years as the Pepsi Arena and formerly the Knickerbocker Arena. The positioning of the name of an arena in the sports and entertainment industry is never easy ‘when a change occurs. Agents and promoters get used to facilities and markets, It normally takes a fair amount of time for the adjustment period to occur. The same goes for the community residents. Since this deal provides mote in net profit to the County than the current contract produces, and given the fact that the TU Center won't have to make up cash amounts due to minimum spending requirements, I believe this Amended & Restated Naming Rights Agreement is in Albany County's best interests and I ask the Albany County Legistature to approve acceptance of this agreement, ‘Thank you.
