A New Regional Stadium

Mayor Sanders recognizes that having a professional football team in our region is good for San Diego's civic pride and quality of life.

He has been working with the Chargers and other civic leaders to build a multi-use stadium in downtown San Diego that would serve as the anchor of a sprawling sports and entertainment district.

At Sanders' initiative, the city has hired New York-based Lazard Ltd., an international financial advisory firm, to craft a financing plan for the project.

The plan is to be completed in the fall of 2012.
