I-TEAM: New Browns dome complex can have anything except…
CLEVELAND (WJW) – The FOX 8 I-TEAM took a closer look at proposed new land use regulations for the site in Brook Park where the Cleveland Browns plan to build a dome, and found developers would be able to build almost anything with a few exceptions. Friday, the Brook Park mayor shared with the I-Team a dozen pages of sweeping new zoning rules that have been proposed and must be approved by Brook Park City leaders. Under 'PROHIBITED USES', the document lists 'adult entertainment businesses' and 'smoke shops.' Ohio AG Yost urges governor to veto plan to use unclaimed funds for Browns stadium 'PERMITTED USES' include 'a Sport facility and all uses and purposes ancillary thereto : (ii) commercial, restaurant and retail, hotel, hospitality, entertainment, health care, hospital, residential, office, warehouse, retail, governmental and public.' The Browns are hoping the Governor approves what lawmakers voted for last week. The House and Senate agreed to give the Browns $600 million to help build a dome, and they agreed on a measure to change the Modell Law that restricts sports teams from moving. The change would clear the way for the Browns to leave the stadium on the lakefront when their lease runs out after the 2028 season. Governor Mike DeWine could take action as soon as Monday. Investigators in NE Ohio after 6 killed in plane crash The Browns have promised to invest more than $1 billion of their own money in the project, and they've said any state money would be paid back with profits from the project. As for the proposed zoning rules in Brook Park, Mayor Ed Orcutt told the I-Team, 'It does streamline the process for development.' The City of Cleveland is fighting in court to block the Browns from moving. It's not clear how the change in the Modell Law would affect cases in the federal and county courts. Friday, lawyers for the city asked to have court deadlines put on hold until the governor makes a final decision on the change in the law . The full budget and related measures were delivered to the governor on Friday for his review. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Browns' dome deal done: New stadium ready by 2029
COLUMBUS (WJW) – Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, the City of Cleveland and the Haslams are talking about a new state budget that included $600 million to go toward building a dome for the Cleveland Browns. The measure includes a change in the Modell Law aimed at clearing the way for the Cleveland Browns to move to Brook Park. New Browns dome complex can have anything except… The money for the Browns and the change in the law mark two major steps toward helping the Browns move off the lakefront. The Browns plan to invest more than $1 billion in a dome and pay back the $600 million with profit from the project. Ohio-made chocolate recalled 'I said from the beginning that my goal was to make sure that no longer do we use general fund taxpayer dollars to support stadiums in the state of Ohio,' said DeWine during a Tuesday morning press conference. 'This budget creates a new fund; this new fund will not only support major league sports facilities, but also minor league facilities, cultural facilities, playhouses, symphonies, and other concert venues. This is a win for taxpayers, and it will provide significant money for things that improve the quality of life in Ohio.' Months ago, in Cuyahoga County court, the city of Cleveland sued the Browns under the Modell Law to keep the team playing on the lakefront. Following the budget signing, Mayor Justin Bibb released the following statement to the I-Team: We are deeply disappointed that the final state budget includes both a $600 million public subsidy for a domed stadium in Brook Park and changes to Ohio's Modell Law — provisions we strongly opposed and requested be removed. Relocating the Browns will divert economic activity from downtown, create a competing entertainment district, and disrupt the momentum of our lakefront redevelopment. It will also trigger substantial taxpayer-funded infrastructure upgrades — including highway reconfigurations and public safety enhancements — adding significant public costs on top of the stadium itself. We also remain firmly opposed to the changes in the Modell Law, which was enacted to protect communities that have made substantial public investments in their sports teams. Undermining this statute sets a troubling precedent and leaves cities like Cleveland with fewer tools to safeguard long-standing public assets. We are embarking on a transformative journey to revitalize our lakefront into a thriving, accessible destination that inspires and unites our community. For decades, Clevelanders have dreamed about the opportunity at our lakefront, and we want to deliver on that shared vision for the future. With major public investment, including $150M in state and federal grants, the city will deliver on transformational infrastructure that will unlock redevelopment opportunities and strengthen the waterfront's role in the region's future. We will continue to protect taxpayer resources and pursue this once-in-a-generation opportunity to reimagine our shoreline. Clevelanders deserve a world class lakefront, and we will deliver on that promise. Justin Bibb, Cleveland Mayor Browns owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam said the following: 'We respect the firm commitment and leadership that Governor DeWine, and the Ohio Senate and House have shown in their collaborative work to find a responsible way to support such a transformative project, one that will create a generational impact for our region and the State. Our fans deserve a world-class facility, and we are committed to building a state-of-the-art enclosed stadium that resonates with Cleveland, highlighting our loyal and passionate fans and the Dawg Pound, while also incorporating innovation, bold design, and an immersive experience. The new enclosed Huntington Bank Field will be completely fan-centric, a first-of-its-kind design in the NFL, and a dynamic venue that draws visitors from across Ohio and beyond, for concerts and significant sporting events throughout the year. This premiere facility will anchor a major lifestyle and entertainment development and be a catalyst for one of Northeast Ohio's largest economic development projects ever and something our community will be proud of and can enjoy for years to come. We appreciate the support of State leaders and their belief in this transformative project.' Dee and Jimmy Haslam Cleveland Councilman Brian Kazy is not in favor of the Browns moving to Brook Park and says he is taking action. He says he is now looking into doing away with the county sin tax that pays for the upkeep of stadiums for the Browns, Guardians, and Cavs. Kazy says they should all now get money from the state. 'More money is available at the state level,' Kazy said. 'So you don't need to come to the city level or the county level to fund stadiums anymore.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
