AEG has been hard at work selling their plan for a downtown Los Angeles stadium, and on Tuesday it appears the massive public relations campaign will pay-off. While we’re still a ways off from the NFL making a return to LA, the city council will reportedly vote on a financing plan at a Tuesday meeting. If approved, the plan would be another step in the right direction towards building a downtown stadium and, perhaps, bringing an NFL team back to the city.
AEG’s Los Angeles Stadium Plan Expected To Recieve ‘Overwhelming’ Approval On Tuesday
LA Times reporter Sam Farmer tweeted his expectation for the proceedings.
As I tweeted last week, AEG's proposal for a downtown LA stadium deal will win overwhelming approval from the city council today.
The agreement is non-binding and the stadium is still five years off, but Tuesday’s vote is needed to keep the project on track. Tuesday’s vote is a sizable step forward, though plenty of obstacles remain before a downtown stadium is actually built. Nevertheless, the city council is expected to approve a tentative financing plan, allowing AEG to continue to move forward.
