Milwaukee Common Council
MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee Common Council unanimously approved the detailed designs for the new Milwaukee Bucks arena on Tuesday morning, May 24th. The vote by council members was 15-0.
The council approved updated plans for three parcels of land for the arena district, including the arena itself, a new parking structure and the team's practice facility.
Tuesday's vote clears the way for the Bucks to break ground on the new facility -- which is set for June 18th. If all goes as planned, the new arena will open in summer 2018.
Bucks President Peter Feigin released the following statement on the council's vote:
