Since February, almost nothing has happened in the Carson City courthouse where the lawsuit was filed. Alongside Doñate, many people filled the commission chambers to support the vendors, requesting the item be tabled for further discussion with the sidewalk vendor community. That’s important, because there are indications that Nevada voters are less than eager to spend public money on the A’s stadium. A poll released April 4 by the nonpartisan polling center of Boston-based Emerson College found that 52% of voters are opposed to the public funding, against only 32% in favor and 17% unsure. The union has until June 26, or just over two months from now, to collect more than 102,000 valid signatures of registered voters to place the referendum on the November ballot.

Alphabet and Microsoft help Wall Street clinch its best week in nearly six months

Nevada Sen. Fabian Doñate, D-Las Vegas, who sponsored the bill, asked county commissioners Tuesday to revisit some of the rules in the proposed ordinance. He said street vending “is a cross-cultural issue that will impact all of us,” but if the ordinance was passed as is, it would be “devastating” to families. Violators may be charged with a civil penalty carrying a fine up to $500. If a vendor violates the ordinance while outside a residential zone, they could be charged with a misdemeanor and subject to up to six months in county jail.

The absurdity of making a grant of public money to a billionaire and his rich cronies for a sports venue while other public needs are more pressing isn’t lost on the teachers, and it shouldn’t be lost on anyone else. At least, that’s the hope of Major League Baseball and the team’s billionaire owner, John Fisher. That the deal will ultimately close as expected is the way to bet, to speak the language of Las Vegas. Walk past the MGM Rewards desk towards the cashier and Public House will be on the left side.

The result was the largest taxpayer handout in U.S. sports history, narrowly edging out the $750-million subsidy Nevada posted to bring the NFL Oakland Raiders to Las Vegas in 2022. Catch the sporting action on a number of huge screens at Public House which offers a menu of tasty American comfort food alongside a selection of ice cold draft beers. The menu, the same served at lunch and dinner, gives fans a look into Irvine’s travels with a focus on comfort foods.

Since being introduced last month, the street vending ordinance has received pushback from the vendor community and its allies, specifically toward what many have called arbitrary distance requirements. People, many of them street vendors, line up to comment on a street vendor ordinance during a Clark County meeting on a street vendor ordinance at the Clark County Government Center Tuesday, April 16, 2024. The Sacramento ballpark has about 14,000 seats, but it may still seem almost vacant when the A’s play there, as the average attendance at the team’s 13 home games in Oakland so far this year is 6,243, worst in the league by an unhealthy margin. The last year that average home attendance at A’s games exceeded 14,000 was 2019. At a game last May between the A’s and the Arizona Diamondbacks, only 2,064 seats were occupied, the lowest attendance for an A’s game in 44 years. Strong Public Schools Nevada, a political action committee of the Nevada State Education Assn., has filed a lawsuit questioning the public funding as unconstitutional.

A separate committee of the union is pressing to qualify for November’s state ballot a voter referendum on the funding. The union’s effort to overturn the public financing at the ballot box is also moving slowly through the Nevada courts. Its petition to place a referendum on the November ballot was invalidated in November by a state judge. The union appealed to the Nevada Supreme Court, which heard oral arguments on the case April 9 but hasn’t issued a decision. That brings us back to the challenges to the Vegas stadium financing brought by the Nevada teachers. The clock is ticking on both the union’s lawsuit and its proposed ballot measures.

Stock market today: Wall Street falls on double dose of disappointing economic data, as Meta sinks

During the last Legislative Session, with important education issues outstanding,...Nevada politicians singularly focused on financing a ‘world-class’ stadium for a California billionaire. The supine political leaders of Nevada should be ashamed at sticking their constituents with a billionaire’s invoice. The lords of the MLB should be ashamed of so shabbily treating the fans who supported the Oakland A’s through four World Series titles and stuck with them until Fisher made the spectacle on the field simply unwatchable. So a sports franchise with 15 American League pennants and nine World Series titles to its name and more than 100 years of loyal fandom in three cities will continue its existence as a token of Major League Baseball’s unsavory dalliance with the gambling industry. Pegula brought the politicians to heel by threatening to move the team to Austin.

Vendors also aren’t allowed to sell near community centers unless contracted by the county, or “the extreme outside perimeter” of any school property or child care facility. Carmen Parra, a member of the advocacy group Make the Road Nevada, told the Sun last week that many vendors she’s spoken with didn’t know about the original regulations passed in October 2023. Make the Road Nevada has taken the lead in backing street vendors since the 2023 Nevada Legislature passed Senate Bill 92 requiring licensing for vendors be handled by individual jurisdictions.

They would also have to detail to the county the products they are selling and structure they are selling from. Other audience members urged commissioners to approve the regulation, saying street vendors posed a threat to their small businesses. The county’s new bill adds limitations on the hours of operation as well, allowing street vendors to sell between 8 a.m.

In very rare cases, a new sports venue can augment economic activity in a town or city, usually one with little else in sports or entertainment on offer. Fisher embarked on an ostensibly serious search for an alternative venue in the Bay Area. Oakland municipal officials trying to work with him on a plan to keep the team accused him of sabotaging those efforts, in part by insisting on massive subsidies for expansive joint stadium/commercial/residential developments. As I wrote last year, since becoming the sole owner of the A’s in 2016, Fisher has systematically dismantled the team and allowed its home stadium, the Oakland Coliseum, to crumble away.

An A’s ballpark — or for that matter, the NFL Raiders’ Allegiant Stadium, where this year’s Super Bowl was held — can’t do much for a city where hotel occupancy is generally close to the highest in the nation. The longest-running melodrama in sports is less about events on the field of play than on machinations in the ownership suite of baseball’s Oakland A’s, who are close to finalizing a move to Las Vegas three or four years from now. The restaurant closed in March 2020 after the state ordered all nonessential businesses, including restaurants and casinos, to shut down to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The man said he sells products like mango, shaved ice or elote from around 7 a.m. Near Boulder Highway but has been assaulted and robbed multiple times in his years in business. He makes about $60 to $80 a day with inflation costs where he once made $180 daily, he said.

The county’s action is in response to the 2023 Nevada Legislature’s passage of Senate Bill 92, which directed individual jurisdictions throughout Nevada to create requirements for licensing and regulation of street vendors. The public financing of stadiums for team owners who could pay for construction out of their own pockets peaked in the 1990s, when voters finally got fed up with giveaways that left their cities and states holding the bag for venues that consistently ran in the red. That places the deadline a bit more than a year from now, assuming the court allows the legislation to stand. As my colleague Bill Shaikin reports, two challenges to the public funding for the team’s proposed new Vegas ballpark have emerged from a Nevada teachers union. The new regulation adds restrictions, prohibiting vendors from selling within 500 feet of a pedestrian mall or entertainment district.

Eduardo Moreno, who has been a street vendor the past 10 years, told the commission the industry was his lone way to support his four children. Street vendors in Clark County will be required to keep their distance from many communal areas like community centers and malls, according to a regulation unanimously approved Tuesday by the Clark County Commission. The billionaire owner of the Oakland A’s ripped off his home-team fans and is staging a ripoff of Las Vegas, showing that civic leaders never learn that stadium subsidies never pay off. Some Inglewood business owners and residents, as it happens, are complaining that the project has brought them increased traffic and noise; higher residential and commercial rents have forced some residents and businesses out of the city. The nearly 60-year-old multipurpose park was always a terrible place to watch a baseball game, with seats ridiculously distant from the action, but in recent years the experience has only gotten worse.

Todd Kelly, chief operating officer of the DRG Food Group, which operates fast food restaurants like Taco Bell and Arby’s, said it was “awesome” that people were trying to make a living as street vendors, but he wanted a larger distance requirement between them and restaurants. He and many others from the fast-food industry, including some store managers who said they grew up in a family of immigrants and street vendors, urged the board to increase the distance requirement from 150 feet to 500 feet. Last fall, the county approved an initial ordinance that set a 1,500-foot distance requirement for street vendors at event venues holding more than 20,000 people, such as T-Mobile Arena and Allegiant Stadium. After more than three hours of presentations, debate and public comment, commissioners went forward with a county plan to regulate the industry, including requiring street vendors to obtain a business license. The new rules also call for street vendors to have a business license, permits from the Southern Nevada Health District and the Nevada Department of Taxation, and proof of liability insurance.

Beer-battered fish and chips come with Kennebec fries while other options include bourbon maple salmon, dry-rubbed Spatchcock half chicken, St. Louis rIbs by the half and full rack, steak Frits, and Shepherds pie with lamb. Burgers, sandwiches, sharable dishes, and apps make the menu as well. For dessert, English banoffee pie with espresso ice cream is the way to go.
