Las Vegas A\'s Don\'t Plan To Use Full $380M Of Public Funds 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Jul 19, 2024 5:12 am

Oakland Athletics executive Sandy Dean told the Las Vegas Stadium Authority on Thursday that the club does not expect to spend the entire $380 million in public money allocated to build a new stadium in Las Vegas.

Dean said the A\'s plan to spend $350 million of those funds, leaving $30 million on the table. He also told the authority that the club plans to finance $300 million of the stadium cost, but no lenders have been secured.

\"We\'ve had strong interest from a number of companies that want to participate in that portion of the project,\" Dean said.
