The clock has nearly struck midnight, leaving time for one last effort to keep the Oakland Raiders in the city they’ve called home for a total of 44 seasons.
With the vote on relocation expected to take place on Monday, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaff, along with the Fortress Investment Group, submitted a revised plan of their proposal to build a $1.3 billion stadium on the southern end of the existing Coliseum site.
“I recognize that this could be our final chance,” Schaaf said, “but we have worked so hard these last two years. We’ve put together a viable deal that satisfies many requirements that we believe is the best deal for the Raiders and the NFL.
