You could not be more wrong. New Orleans has the Superdome and Smoothie King center with two professional sports teams and yet NOLA has experienced a decrease in population! You're being delusional about this project having a positive impact on Baton Rouge.
wrong
Metro New Orleans population has been growing steadily since the Katrina catastrophe

Data posted 6 days ago shows you are wrong.
The New Orleans-Metairie Metropolitan Area, which encompasses seven parishes near the city, saw the steepest declines of any large metro nationwide from 2020 to 2023. The metro region lost 45,000 residents during those three years, a 4.3% drop primarily due to residents leaving Orleans and Jefferson parishes.6 days ago
LINK .
A new arena will not drive population growth as some have stated. I surely do not support the current mayor of Baton Rouge and I have gone toe to toe with Chauna many times. To be compared to that idiot is comical.
As stated in the OP post. "New hospitality taxes or property taxes can also be imposed in the districts."
Yall want to "possibly" tax residents via property tax increases in the district for a new arena. I can't wait to see how this unfolds.
