Board approves Raiders lease to remain in Oakland in 2019. MORE:
The board voted unanimously to approve the lease for 2019 with an option for 2020. The deal still must be approved by the Oakland City Council and the Alameda County Board of Supervisors, but no hang-ups are expected.
The Coliseum Authority will retain naming rights for the stadium and get an additional $750,000 from the team to settle a dispute over parking revenue. "For me to be here in Oakland, a part of the Oakland Raiders and be able to be on the last team that's ever going to be here in Oakland, it's something special in itself," he said."So, it's pressure in that, it's excitement in that, and there is a lot that comes with that, and I'm here today ready to embrace all that."
