ok: here's the gist of the Heat fanbase and their monthly meeting with Petrovek..... basically, a decision within 7 to 10 days as to whether next season's "bridge lease" WILL be exercised.... otherwise, it's just ancillary issues within growing the support/outreach of the franchise outside of Stockton, upgrades in technology, ie wi-fi/and a modern or upgraded scoreboard, some of the glass and seating at Stockton Arena either needs to be upgraded/replaced but primarily the core issue is the Practice facility needs to be imploded or totally rebuilt to minimum Specifications now that the Stockton Kings are splitting the current arena, they are also a party and are behind the previously mentioned improvements, and if the Heat will be forced to sublet the practice arena.... now it's on the city of Stockton and their response to the above, and who pays for what....
the one thing I'd love to find out is what is the minimum Specification for an arena at the AHL/ECHL level, AFTER what was mentioned about Colorado and the Budweiser Events Center and that improvement.
