Mesa City Council Approves Theme Park District, Potentially Paving Way for Sports Stadium at Fiesta Mall SiteThe Mesa City Council has greenlit a new theme park district, which could lead to a sports stadium at the former Fiesta Mall site. This eighty-acre property, owned by Verde Investments (owned by billionaire Ernest Garcia II), is set to be sold to Palo District LLC, managed by Vicki Mayo, CEO of Sunny Day Sports. The Palo District, the second of its kind in Arizona, will provide a dedicated financing system and a board of City Council members and appointed state legislators. While specifics are still unclear, Mesa has been considered a potential location for a new sports stadium, with preliminary talks with Major League Soccer officials in December. This move is a significant step forward for the Fiesta Redefined project, aiming to transform the former mall site into a vibrant community.
