Now that the Sacramento Kings have been given the OK from a Federal Judge to go ahead with building the new arena and struck down all petition's from people and company's to stop the process; a Sacramento Superior Court Judge has awarded the Kings ownership of the old downtown Macy's store, theres not any legal issues remaining. Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, Senate President pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, Sacramento Kings President Chris Granger, Sacramento-Sierra Building and Construction Trade Council President Dennis Canevari and other top region and state leaders announced the signing of the Community Workfoce and Training Agreement (CWTA).
The CWTA will govern the hiring, training and oversight of an estimated 3,000 to 3,500 on-site workers during the construction of the new downtown entertainment and sport center (ESC). As part of the CWTA, the parties agree to target hiring at least 60% of construction workers and 70% of apprentices from the City of Sacramento and surrounding region.
Chapter 17.442 Entertainment and Sports Center Special Planning District give more details and breaks down each section of the construction, requirements and boundaries that must be followed.
