As a University, and one of the only ones to truly have a Dome in play, I think there is a significant ability to focus a revitalization of the current Dome (which I strongly support) or a new stadium around the use of "green" technology.

As you all know, there are just as many opportunities for tax breaks and support from legislators who may not normally be on board if that is a significant focus. Can you imagine what happens if a new fixed roof incorporates say solar or wind technology to offset energy costs to the stadium and, perhaps, some surrounding building like the geology building/earth science building and the physics building which are a stone's throw from the current Dome ?

Like them or not, the amount of tax credits (and publicity whether manufactured or otherwise) Pyramid and Destiny USA have been able to obtain due to their LEED certifications and use of these technologies have been massive. It is something that should certainly be considered in this project and would make our facility stand out yet again when compared to other venues.
