Commentary: What is the Angels' future in Orange County? In Anaheim, uneasy lies the halo
"The Angels' stadium lease expires in six years, so what might happen beyond then is starting to come into focus. Angels owner Arte Moreno turns 80 this summer."
"In the coming months, the city expects to release an assessment of what it would take to keep the stadium up and running for years to come, and that could trigger a debate between the city and the Angels about who should pay for what."
"The city, after all, walked away from two deals that would have secured the Angels' long-term future in Anaheim. During negotiations for the last deal, city officials made clear that keeping the Angels was the top priority."
"We need to plan for what we see as a vision for that property when the lease has expired, said Mayor Ashleigh Aitken."
The Angels' stadium lease will expire in six years, raising questions about the future of the team and the stadium. Owner Arte Moreno may extend the lease, but this does not address the need for renovation or replacement of Angel Stadium. The city plans to assess the stadium's future, which could lead to debates over funding responsibilities. Frustration exists among the Angels regarding city negotiations and the impact on team morale. The mayor of Anaheim emphasizes the need to prepare for a future with or without the Angels.
