INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Inglewood Mayor James Butts and the five-member City Council will meet to review an exclusive negotiating agreement between the city and the Los Angeles Clippers that could lead to building a new arena for the NBA team.
The agreement will be discussed Thursday morning at a public hearing in the Los Angeles suburb.
If approved, it would pave the way for the city and the Clippers to pursue development of a 20,000-seat arena. It would be on a 20-acre parcel located across the street from the under-construction, $2.6 billion NFL stadium that will be home to the Chargers and Rams.
