Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo signed a bill Thursday granting $380 million in public money to the Oakland A’s for the construction of a ballpark in Las Vegas, leaving few obstacles for the team’s departure after five decades in the Bay Area.
Lombardo, a Republican, signed the bill a day after both houses of the Nevada Legislature approved the deal, which includes a slew of community benefits and financial commitments promised by the A’s in order to secure the necessary votes.
