Everything you need to know about the Super Bowl in Las Vegas By Mike Prevatt Published February 8, 2024 at 9:38 AM PST The Super Bowl has arrived. Three days from now, the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs battle it out at Allegiant Stadium. And many say this will be the biggest thing to happen in Las Vegas. Just saying that can be a shock to the system when you think back to just 20 years ago, when the NFL wouldn’t allow any advertisement or even mention of Las Vegas during the game. That, of course, has all changed. Now, Las Vegas has an NFL team and the NFL partners with gambling websites. We also have a major stadium. But it's more than just a game for Las Vegas. The economic impact of hosting the game is predicted to be about a billion dollars, give or take (and depending on who you ask). The question always remains: Do the regular folks of Las Vegas benefit from that revenue infusion, or does it chiefly go to the corporations on the Strip? It's complicated, suggests consultant John Restrepo of RCG Economics. "Is it [...]

State of the Counties: Economic development benefits all By Scott Neuffer, Thursday, January 25, 2024 Storey County Manager Austin Osborne maintains that economic development benefits all counties in western Nevada wherever the development is occurring. “When economic development happens in any of our counties, all the ships rise with it,” he said. “We all benefit one way or another, directly.” Osborne was one of five speakers representing rural counties at the Northern Nevada Development Authority’s annual State of the Counties conference Wednesday. Managers of Carson, Storey, Lyon, Douglas and Mineral counties discussed economic strengths and weaknesses of their respective areas and described a common synergy. Osborne pointed to the success of the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center (TRIC) in Storey County. “The (Tesla) Gigafactory alone, when you look at the data, has generated $117 million in (tax) revenue to the Reno-Sparks-Storey County area and to the neighbors,” he said. Construction for the Tesla factory began in 2014. Osborne said seven years before the arrival of Tesla, Washoe County’s budget was growing by $4.9 million. Seven years after Tesla’s arrival, it was growing by $113 million. “That doesn’t mean every one of [...]
