Members of the Oakland City Council, Alameda County Board of Supervisors, and area Chambers of Commerce agreed to meet on November 22 to discuss the formation of a non-profit corporation to finance the building of a multi-purpose sports stadium.

Ownership of the stadium would transfer to the city and county jointly once it was paid off.
