About ISCBA

Effective May 15, 2005, the Indiana Stadium and Convention Building Authority was established pursuant to House Bill 1120, which has now been codified at Ind. Code 5-1-17, as a new agency of the state to finance, design, construct and own Lucas Oil Stadium. Once the Stadium is complete, it will be leased to and operated by the Capital Improvement Board of Managers of Marion County ("CIB"). The CIB has, in turn, entered into a sublease with the Indianapolis Colts, pursuant to which the Colts will play their home NFL games within the Stadium. Lucas Oil Stadium will also be marketed by the CIB, in conjunction with the Indianapolis Convention and Visitors Association, to host NCAA and other sporting events, conventions, concerts, trade shows, and other major public events. Lucas Oil Stadium is scheduled to be complete in August of 2008.

In order to expand the Convention Center, the Indiana Stadium and Convention Building Authority will then demolish the RCA Dome and will proceed to finance, design, construct and own an expansion to the Indiana Convention Center, which will be located on the current site of the RCA Dome. The Authority anticipates that the Convention Center Expansion will be substantially complete in the 3rd quarter of 2010 and, once complete, it will also be leased to and operated by the CIB.

During and after the design and construction of both Lucas Oil Stadium and the Convention Center Expansion, the CIB will continue to own and operate the existing Indiana Convention Center.

The Indiana Stadium and Convention Building Authority is governed by a seven member board, comprised of four appointments by the Governor, two appointments by the Mayor of the City of Indianapolis and one appointment by the Governor following nomination from one of the counties surrounding Marion County.
