Can the stadium be upgraded without demolishing it? Would it take playing at Dodger Stadium two years like the Yankee Stadium renovation in the 70s? I haven't been to the stadium since the Rams configuration and that was in 1992. I was in town in 2001 but the team was on the road.
The current stadium was downsized to about 30,000 seats in 1996-97 so Disney could do its renovations.

Bill, is there language in the lease regarding stadium maintenance costs and who is responsible absent any other deals or renegotiation?
Yes. The Angels and the city don't agree on the interpretation of the language.

Arte Moreno had that option in Tustin. He passed. That doesn't mean he couldn't do so elsewhere - maybe even next to the current stadium - but that would not appear to be his first choice.

The city's obligation to Arte is to provide venue parking for the Angels games. They can still do that with parking structures, both overhead and underground. Disney would love to access that parking for employees and vendors on days that the stadium is idle.
No. The lease specifies the Angels' parking spaces have to be surface-level. You can't build parking structures, or much of anything else, without the Angels' OK.

Arte is spending $300 million on free agents?
And remember Trout's salary goes from $5 million this year to $33 million by 2018.

To those who asked, the Angels have veto rights over certain development on the stadium parking lot. The proposed development at issue here is at the corner of State College and Orangewood but is not part of the stadium property (even though that corner would seem to be).
