Overview
- In a recently filed complaint, companies tied to Hollywood Park claim the city owes about $376 million for roads, sewers, traffic control, and police and fire services tied to the SoFi Stadium project.
- Inglewood’s answer filed last week cites a California appellate precedent to argue the 2015 development agreement is invalid and says the city cannot lawfully disburse tax dollars without a valid contract.
- A judge previously rejected a bid to halt a WOW Media signage plan and found the 2015 agreement improperly enacted, undercutting Kroenke’s reliance on that document.
- The separate billboard case continues after an August denial of a preliminary injunction, with a trial set for March 13 over city-approved digital signs on public property that would generate shared ad revenue.
- Hollywood Park says the city reneged after benefiting from billions in private investment, noting a $20 million partial reimbursement last May, while city leaders assert control over public land and reject a so‑called billionaire’s exception.
