Oakland Alameda County and Ron Reese

NFL: The Raiders have no lease for a stadium for next season after NFL owners earlier this month shot down their plans to move to the Los Angeles area, according to The Japan Times. The team is negotiating a short-term extension with officials in Oakland and Alameda County but is also looking for a permanent new home to replace the outdated Coliseum. Sands spokesman Ron Reese said the casino company envisions a public-private partnership to build a $1 billion, 65,000-seat stadium that could be shared by a professional team and UNLV. The Sands would likely partner with other investors and might seek to draw on public revenue sources, such as hotel room tax revenue earmarked for promoting tourism. Sands owner Sheldon Adelson has scheduled a Friday meeting with Raiders owner Mark Davis. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
