The city says it's proud to rename it the LIV Communities Arena, after city council approved a naming rights agreement last year.

The city also says LIV Communities has committed $500,000 over a 10-year period to support repair work, this partnership showing an agreement to important infrastructure while reducing the burden on taxpayers.
