LOS ANGELES — Organizers for Los Angeles’ bid for the 2024 Olympics will concede that considering awarding the 2028 Games now is a smart move for the International Olympic Committee.
They just don’t think it’s their city and their bid that should be put off.
The IOC’s evaluation commission wrapped up three days here on Friday, concluding a visit that will be the foundation of a report it will deliver to the IOC in July. Ostensibly, that report is intended to inform the vote for the 2024 Games.
But with the IOC facing a shortage of cities willing to take on the Games and two quality bids, it is considering giving one city the 2024 Games and another the 2028 Olympics when it votes in September in Lima, Peru.
