UPDATE on earlier Farmers Field post: "Star salesman" Tim Leiweke may as well have the deal in the bag, writes LA Observed's Bill Boyarsky. After a Monday meeting to air Westside concerns about the deal, Boyarsky says "this deal is wired for City Hall approval" now that AEG only wants $300 million in bonds to be part of the deal. Somehow, that turned two city council skeptics into believers. Plus, there's clarification on how AEG managed the smaller bond package: AEG says they'd pay for two parking structures for the stadium themselves, rather than using city bond funds. [LA Observed]
