The A's proposed waterfront ballpark took another step forward Wednesday.
The California State Assembly passed Assembly Bill 1191, which would allow for the A's to construct a privately financed ballpark at Oakland's Howard Terminal site. The legislation passed 56-0, according to A's president Dave Kaval.
"We still have much work ahead of us, but this is another significant milestone for our club and our city,” Kaval said in a statement Wednesday.
