SAN DIEGO (AP) — With one eye on the developing NFL situation up the freeway in Los Angeles, the San Diego Chargers issued their sternest warning yet to City Hall in their long-running effort to get a new stadium.
The Chargers' push for a new stadium has coincided with various political and financial upheavals at City Hall. Qualcomm Stadium has fallen into disrepair and lacks the modern amenities the team says it needs to compete financially with other franchises.
"We think that we can find a solution that works for everybody that's fair,Cheap NFL Jerseys China," Day said during a news conference. "Our objective is to come forward with something that settles this once and for all. Obviously it's something the voters need to support. If there's not a solution out there that the voters can support, you're not going to find us recommending it."
While continuing to work to find a solution in San Diego, "we also want to be clear with this task force right at the outset: We are keeping a close eye on developments in LA. We do not have a choice but to also monitor and evaluate our options there. Simply put, it would be irresponsible for the Chargers not to be taking every possible step to protect the future of the franchise,Jerseys NFL China," Fabiani said.
That was one of many points Fabiani made to the nine-member advisory group, which was appointed earlier this month by Mayor Kevin Faulconer to recommend a site and financing plan for a new stadium that can go on the November 2016 ballot.
"If another team — or two teams — enters the LA/Orange County markets, most of that Chargers' business there will disappear," Fabiani said. "This will put the Chargers at a significant competitive economic disadvantage."
Faulconer's spokesman, Matt Awbrey,Cheap Jerseys, said Fabiani's call for a tax increase to finance a stadium was "one option, but it's not the only way or even the best way to replace the aging Qualcomm stadium."
But he also said the group would "test and question" the four principles Fabiani suggested.
"But after all these years of work, we also understand this: It might be that ... there is at least at this time no publicly acceptable solution to the stadium issue in San Diego. If the facts lead you to this conclusion,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, we hope you will say so, even though you will be under tremendous political pressure to propose something — anything — just to show that the politicians are trying."
Advisory group chairman Adam Day said the meeting was "very productive" and cordial.
Fabiani said the group "should resist the political pressure to make a proposal simply for the sake of making a proposal."
The Chargers' most recent proposal was to build a multiple-use stadium downtown as part of a non-contiguous expansion of the convention center. A financing plan for a contiguous expansion favored by convention center officials and downtown hoteliers was recently struck down in court.
"We invite Mr. Fabiani be open to other solutions and to join the community and fans that want to keep the Chargers in San Diego."
Many people feel that a financing plan that would require a two-thirds vote would fail.
The city expanded Qualcomm Stadium in 1997. Just three years later, owner Alex Spanos said the team needed a new stadium.
"Today Mr. Fabiani talked about the possibility of the team moving to Los Angeles while also calling for a tax increase to finance a stadium in San Diego," Awbrey said in a statement.
He suggested the task force's work be subjected to "serious, real-world stress tests," including whether a stadium proposal had a chance of being approved by two-thirds of the voters.
Attorney Mark Fabiani, who's handled the team's stadium push since 2002, told the mayor's advisory group that for the time being, anyway, there might not be a publicly acceptable solution to replace aging Qualcomm Stadium.
St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke is part of a joint venture that wants to build an 80,000-seat stadium in the L.A. suburb of Inglewood. The Oakland Raiders also could be interested in moving to Los Angeles.
Chargers president Dean Spanos did not attend the meeting. He was out of town due to the holiday, Fabiani said.
In a not-so-subtle threat,China Jerseys Cheap, Fabiani said the Chargers "have no intention of quietly participating in any effort to provide political cover for elected officials. ... Simply put,Deion Jones Falcons Jersey UK</
