UPDATE: Proposed NFL Stadium Gets Support From Riverside County Today

5/10 UPDATE 12 noon: The Riverside County Board of Supervisors has unanimously endorsed plans for a professional football stadium in the city of Industry.

5/10 ORIGINAL POST: The Riverside County Board of Supervisors is expected today to endorse plans to build an NFL football stadium designed to attract residents from across the region.

During its regularly scheduled meeting today, the supervisors are expected to adopt a resolution supporting construction of the proposed stadium currently known as the Los Angeles Football Stadium at Grand Crossing.

If constructed, the stadium would be located where the 60 and 57 freeways intersect in city of Indusry. The site is situated inside Los Angeles County at the edges of Riverside, San Bernardino and Orange counties.

Los Angeles-based Majestic Realty Co. is the developer on the project. The company also built the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

“Majestic Realty Co. is replicating the most successful model in the National Football League by placing Los Angeles Stadium outside the congestion of an metro area,” according to a website for the proposed project. “Over half of the new NFL stadiums have been built in the suburbs including Dallas, New England, New York and Washington.”

 “Over the 15 years we've been on this project we've looked at every possible location in Southern California,” said Edward Roski, Majestic Realty Co. chairman and CEO. “We've researched downtown, the Rose Bowl and the Coliseum, and all of those sites lack the spacious grounds necessary for the ultimate fan experience."

For those wondering what NFL team would play at the proposed stadium, one might follow the money: Roski is co-owner of the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Kings.

According to Majestic, no public money would be used to finance construction of the 75,000-capacity stadium.
