Agreements regarding the construction of the baseball park and the football stadium shall provide that those facilities shall not be owned by the teams that will be their principal tenants but that the authority shall either own or enter into long-term leases with the owner of the land, building and fixtures for each of those facilities regardless of what public or private entities are responsible for the construction of those facilities. Each agreement regarding a regional destination facility shall provide for:
(1) The development of long-term plans for the financing, development and operation of the facility.
(2) Performance and financial goals, objectives and standards for the operation of the facility.
(3) Assurances that adequate measures will be undertaken to maintain and improve the facility.
(4) Assurances that the operating and capital budgeting for the facility will occur in a financially responsible manner.
(b) Prior to the start of the first full fiscal year of the authority, the board shall adopt, in addition to the operating and capital budgets required under sections 3036 and 3037, long-term budgets for the Regional Destination Facilities Fund and the Regional Growth Fund. The long-term budget for the Regional Destination Facilities Fund shall estimate the total revenues required to complete the construction of all of the projects included in the definition of "regional destination facility" and the amount of revenues to be received by the authority during the first seven calendar years of its existence. At least ninety days before commencement of the second and third full fiscal years of the authority, the board shall update and revise the operating and capital budgets as required under the long-term budget.
