The operator - the foundation of former Dodgers owner Frank McCourt - has asked the city to restructure the contract between the parties and, in so doing, forgo what the city lists as $442,840 in outstanding royalty payments.
Frank McCourt's proposed gondola from Union Station to Dodger Stadium hit what appears to be its most significant roadblock yet on Wednesday, when the Los Angeles City Council voted to urge Metro to kill the project. The resolution, approved by an 11-2 vote, is not in itself any kind of formal decision. It would not take effect unless Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass concurs, and Bass previously voted in favor of the project as a member of the Metro board.
