Erie County Legislators react to renderings for new Bills stadium
‘”I think it was something that we didn’t expect. It takes us in, certainly, the next 30 years with something other than what we have right now,” said Legislator John Mills, who represents the Town of Orchard Park on Thursday. “I like the concept of the covering, 65% of the seats will be covered, and the rest of the building will be open to the weather, which we have a little advantage of that when we play a game. Also the construction is going to prevent a lot of heavy wind going to the stadium, which I thought was a great idea too. And the gathering areas are very exciting, to know they have gathering area for people to get together if they don’t have a seat, or they do have a seat. You can gather together with different people and their families. So it’s exciting. It really is. It’s something that we’ve looked forward to for the last 50 years.”‘
