AEG outlines plans

With the deadline looming for the city to commit to a downtown football stadium, AEG President Tim Leiweke hinted Friday at some of the key provisions a deal could contain.

"I understand the skeptics out there," Leiweke told members of the downtown Rotary Club during a noontime speech. "I am not saying this hasn't been controversial, but clearly, this is a different vision, a different time.

"I get how people are suspicious. I get how people don't trust their governments. I get that coming to the city government and asking them to pay for a stadium is the wrong thing to do - not at a time when you are taking $54 million from the (budget of the) fire department."
