"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Our neighborhood (near the proposed A's park) is watching the stadium development, and hoping that a respectful process will take place when the discussion on baseball arrives.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>David Vandegrift of San Jose:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We can’t really enjoy our backyards during the games (at the Quakes’ current home, Buck Shaw Stadium). There are loud noise spikes every minute or so, horns, drums, PA announcements. The drums are particularly intrusive, since they generate a low-frequency rhythmic sound. Going inside doesn’t solve the problem since these older homes don’t have triple-pane windows or air conditioning.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Jonathan Martinez of San Jose:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Noise?

In those 20 years, this is the first time I’ve ever spoken before a group like this and not been asking for public money. It’s unique in this day and age to find an ownership group willing to provide 100% private financing for a facility. The commitment that they’ve shown not to have concerts really shows their commitment to the neighborhood and the community. In all of our other facilities, concerts are a big part of the economic plan, and not to have them is a real concession.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",

Our neighborhood (near the proposed A's park) is watching the stadium development, and hoping that a respectful process will take place when the discussion on baseball arrives.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>David Vandegrift of San Jose:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We can’t really enjoy our backyards during the games (at the Quakes’ current home, Buck Shaw Stadium). There are loud noise spikes every minute or so, horns, drums, PA announcements. The drums are particularly intrusive, since they generate a low-frequency rhythmic sound. Going inside doesn’t solve the problem since these older homes don’t have triple-pane windows or air conditioning.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Jonathan Martinez of San Jose:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Noise? Are you kidding me? There's a train that goes by (the stadium site) and it's not exactly quiet, and you've got an airport right there, and an airplane doesn't make noise?

That deserves a lot of consideration. That dwarfs the Earthquakes' investment of $60-70 million in a stadium.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Mark Abbott, President of Major League Soccer, New York:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I’ve been involved with the league for almost 20 years now, and part of my job is to travel around and speak to commissions such as this to talk about facilities. In those 20 years, this is the first time I’ve ever spoken before a group like this and not been asking for public money. It’s unique in this day and age to find an ownership group willing to provide 100% private financing for a facility. The commitment that they’ve shown not to have concerts really shows their commitment to the neighborhood and the community. In all of our other facilities, concerts are a big part of the economic plan, and not to have them is a real concession.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

We did the demolition work on the old factory last year. So if you consider what it was, a tank factory, and now it's going to be a professional sports venue, that's a pretty big change. It’s gentrification of an area that had been blighted and unused, which is a real positive for the community.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>I asked him what happens to the land if the Quakes don’t succeed in putting a stadium there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The reality is maybe nothing would get built here. Maybe it would just lie empty for a long time. We have the option to develop the whole property, so in the long term this would include the stadium on 14 acres, our practice facility, and four lighted and turfed public soccer fields. And we have it zoned for a hotel and commercial real estate. It’s going to be a great gateway into San Jose for all the people arriving at the airport.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Kaval came to the Earthquakes in the fall of 2010 after founding independent baseball’s California Golden League. But soccer has always been a passion for him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I’ve lived here since the early 1990’s. I went to games when the team was the San Jose Clash, and to the earlier version of the Quakes before the team left for Houston. The Earthquakes originally go back to 1974, when the team started playing in the North American Soccer League in San Jose. It was the first pro sports team in Silicon Valley. For a lot of people who were here at the time, it really helped put the community on the map, and created a lot of camaraderie and civic pride. \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And Kaval thinks a new stadium that would belong to the Quakes, instead of the rented college facilities the team has had up to now, would bring a whole new fan base with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Similar to when the Sharks got here. Who knew about hockey before we got a hockey team here? And it’s been wildly successful. Well, people already know about soccer. It’s the perfect sport for this international, diverse community of the Silicon Valley. People come here from Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and for many of them their number one sport is soccer.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If the Planning Commission gives the green light, construction could start later this year and the Quakes could kick off by the end of 2013. No city money is involved, says Kaval; the team is providing all the funding. The Quakes share ownership with the Oakland A's, who might have a new San Jose stadium of their own if Major League Baseball allows them to move south. Kaval says links between the two stadium proposals have been overblown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We’re really run as our own entity. This process is really a stand-alone process. Since our ownership is basically the same as the A’s, any learning from this, best practices, and how to work with communities, can be helpful to them. But they’re not linked in the way that some people might assume. The financing is completely separate, and obviously it’s a different sport, different league, different location.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The hearing’s at San Jose City Hall at 6:30 PM and will be \u003ca href=\"http://sanjose.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=35\">streamed online\u003c/a>.

People come here from Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and for many of them their number one sport is soccer.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If the Planning Commission gives the green light, construction could start later this year and the Quakes could kick off by the end of 2013. No city money is involved, says Kaval; the team is providing all the funding. The Quakes share ownership with the Oakland A's, who might have a new San Jose stadium of their own if Major League Baseball allows them to move south. Kaval says links between the two stadium proposals have been overblown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We’re really run as our own entity. This process is really a stand-alone process. Since our ownership is basically the same as the A’s, any learning from this, best practices, and how to work with communities, can be helpful to them. But they’re not linked in the way that some people might assume. The financing is completely separate, and obviously it’s a different sport, different league, different location.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The hearing’s at San Jose City Hall at 6:30 PM and will be \u003ca href=\"http://sanjose.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=35\">streamed online\u003c/a>.

He answered questions from Santa Clara County assessor Larry Stone, who's been active in the effort to get the A's to move from Oakland to San Jose; and later from the audience. A's ownership has been waiting for the last three years for Major League Baseball to give them permission to relocate the team. There's been a flurry of speculation in the last few months that permission will come before Opening Day 2012. Although Wolff said he is optimistic, he was quick to diminish any hope of news his audience might have.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Thank you all for coming. I see a lot of press here. And I really wish I was here with a fantastic announcement for you. I commend you to the parable of the tortoise and the tortoise.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The tortoise Wolff is waiting on is MLB Commissioner Bud Selig. The A's can't move outside their territory of Alameda and Contra Costa counties without the permission of Major League Baseball. Selig appointed a committee to examine the possible Bay Area locations for the A's -- as of today, they've been at it for 1,061 days. And Wolff sounded slightly testy about the so-called \"blue-ribbon\" group's pace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>If one more person calls it a blue-ribbon committee, I'm gonna throw up. It's a committee. It's not a blue-ribbon committee. The gentlemen on the committee are good guys but they are doing the bidding of the commissioner. Baseball's gone from a $1 or $2 billion industry under Bud Selig to $7 or $8 billion. He's a deliberative person. But that deliberation, when you view the balance sheet -- he's done such a fabulous job. We're following the process. It's excruciating. But I think we're getting there. We have ways of being a belligerent owner. It's just not in me to do that.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The A's are restricted from moving to Santa Clara County because MLB has assigned that territory to the San Francisco Giants. Giants' ownership contends that a large part of their ticket sales and corporate support comes from Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, so a team in San Jose would cut into their support. As yet they haven't been amenable to making a deal to give up their rights to the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Wolff: The Giants are trying to stonewall it, which is certainly working -- for them. And we're saying \"tell us what we can do.\" We think the facts are on our side. We don't want to hurt the Giants, in fact we think the end result will be a great result for everybody, a great new venue here as well as there, and competition for them. So it's just sort of strange, and it's hard to answer the question of why this has gone on so long.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Oakland, Wolff said when he bought the A's he had planned to build a new stadium there:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We really wanted to stay and figure it out in Oakland. At the time we started looking, we had the ability to get residential zoning or entitlements. The market was much different than today. Had that moved along, we would have had a ballpark there. Because that's the fan base, we have very loyal fans there, terrific people -- 99% of our fans are terrific, the others hate me.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Even if MLB grants Wolff's San Jose wish, there are a few other steps to go before work on a stadium can start. The city of San Jose has acquired most of the land they'd need, but not all of it. And the ballpark plan would have to pass a public referendum. Wolff said he didn't have a problem with putting the ballpark up for a vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We'll do whatever is necessary. And if for some reason the community leaders, or elected officials, are persuaded that this is not good for the community, then we'll understand that too. If we did nothing else but just build the ballpark and it employed people and it had construction work, that would be a plus today. And whether that ballpark is in Fremont, Oakland, or San Jose, I just think it's obvious that we would add to the community.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The A's traded or failed to re-sign many of their best players over the off-season. Wolff told the San Jose audience that's because the team doesn't make enough money now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> If you don't want to lose millions of dollars, the rule of thumb is that your major league payroll should be half your revenue. Simply put, we need more revenue. We're going to be playing against three teams in our division, all three will be over $100 million in salary. One I know is $170 million and one is close to that, I think. That's up a great deal from when we bought the team, when there were,I think, six or eight teams with $100 million in salary; it's double that now. So the quality of what we put on the field has to be based on our revenue, which puts us in the $50-$60-$65 million salary range. That isn't an excuse, you know, maybe we're David against Goliath for a couple of years. But once we move and have a new venue we'll be able to be similar to the other teams.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Earlier this week, Wolff announced that he's negotiated a contract extension with his team's general manager, Billy Beane, that could last through 2019. Beane's relative success with lower payrolls is the basis for the recent film \u003cem>Moneyball, \u003c/em>which ends with the words \"Billy Beane is still trying to win the last game of the season.\" But not at any price, according to his boss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>He (Billy Beane) would feel, and I would too of course, but he would feel for sure that if we got into the playoffs or even won the World Series and we lost $30 or $40 million doing it, he wouldn't consider that a victory. He would consider that buying a victory. And that's great for us, because we don't want to be in a deficit situation. Frankly, the Haas family had to sell the team because while they were winning, they were losing. And Billy's had the opportunity to go any place he wanted. He wants to win here. I want to win here - here meaning the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>But Wolff signaled that his willingness to wait on Major League Baseball to give the go-ahead for the San Jose move has limits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I'm not going to continue this (waiting for permission to move) much longer. What we want is an answer. We want a \"Yes, you can relocate, share the district, share the territory\". Or \"You can't.\" We have a way of demanding a vote (from MLB) but that isn't our nature. So the best thing for us to do in the next couple of months is see where we go. After that, though, I think I have to -- I can't even continue to come to these wonderful lunches, I'd feel like (Bernie) Madoff, or somebody.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the Lew Wolff completionist, you can \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/blogs/newsfix/lewwolff.mp3\">\u003cstrong>listen to the full speech here\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Although Wolff said he is optimistic, he was quick to diminish any hope of news his audience might have.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Thank you all for coming. I see a lot of press here. And I really wish I was here with a fantastic announcement for you. I commend you to the parable of the tortoise and the tortoise.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The tortoise Wolff is waiting on is MLB Commissioner Bud Selig. The A's can't move outside their territory of Alameda and Contra Costa counties without the permission of Major League Baseball. Selig appointed a committee to examine the possible Bay Area locations for the A's -- as of today, they've been at it for 1,061 days. And Wolff sounded slightly testy about the so-called \"blue-ribbon\" group's pace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>If one more person calls it a blue-ribbon committee, I'm gonna throw up. It's a committee. It's not a blue-ribbon committee. The gentlemen on the committee are good guys but they are doing the bidding of the commissioner. Baseball's gone from a $1 or $2 billion industry under Bud Selig to $7 or $8 billion. He's a deliberative person. But that deliberation, when you view the balance sheet -- he's done such a fabulous job. We're following the process. It's excruciating. But I think we're getting there. We have ways of being a belligerent owner. It's just not in me to do that.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The A's are restricted from moving to Santa Clara County because MLB has assigned that territory to the San Francisco Giants. Giants' ownership contends that a large part of their ticket sales and corporate support comes from Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, so a team in San Jose would cut into their support. As yet they haven't been amenable to making a deal to give up their rights to the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Wolff: The Giants are trying to stonewall it, which is certainly working -- for them. And we're saying \"tell us what we can do.\" We think the facts are on our side. We don't want to hurt the Giants, in fact we think the end result will be a great result for everybody, a great new venue here as well as there, and competition for them. So it's just sort of strange, and it's hard to answer the question of why this has gone on so long.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Oakland, Wolff said when he bought the A's he had planned to build a new stadium there:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We really wanted to stay and figure it out in Oakland. At the time we started looking, we had the ability to get residential zoning or entitlements. The market was much different than today. Had that moved along, we would have had a ballpark there. Because that's the fan base, we have very loyal fans there, terrific people -- 99% of our fans are terrific, the others hate me.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Even if MLB grants Wolff's San Jose wish, there are a few other steps to go before work on a stadium can start. The city of San Jose has acquired most of the land they'd need, but not all of it. And the ballpark plan would have to pass a public referendum. Wolff said he didn't have a problem with putting the ballpark up for a vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And if for some reason the community leaders, or elected officials, are persuaded that this is not good for the community, then we'll understand that too. If we did nothing else but just build the ballpark and it employed people and it had construction work, that would be a plus today. And whether that ballpark is in Fremont, Oakland, or San Jose, I just think it's obvious that we would add to the community.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The A's traded or failed to re-sign many of their best players over the off-season. Wolff told the San Jose audience that's because the team doesn't make enough money now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> If you don't want to lose millions of dollars, the rule of thumb is that your major league payroll should be half your revenue. Simply put, we need more revenue. We're going to be playing against three teams in our division, all three will be over $100 million in salary. One I know is $170 million and one is close to that, I think. That's up a great deal from when we bought the team, when there were,I think, six or eight teams with $100 million in salary; it's double that now. So the quality of what we put on the field has to be based on our revenue, which puts us in the $50-$60-$65 million salary range. That isn't an excuse, you know, maybe we're David against Goliath for a couple of years. But once we move and have a new venue we'll be able to be similar to the other teams.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Earlier this week, Wolff announced that he's negotiated a contract extension with his team's general manager, Billy Beane, that could last through 2019. Beane's relative success with lower payrolls is the basis for the recent film \u003cem>Moneyball, \u003c/em>which ends with the words \"Billy Beane is still trying to win the last game of the season.\" But not at any price, according to his boss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>He (Billy Beane) would feel, and I would too of course, but he would feel for sure that if we got into the playoffs or even won the World Series and we lost $30 or $40 million doing it, he wouldn't consider that a victory. He would consider that buying a victory. And that's great for us, because we don't want to be in a deficit situation. Frankly, the Haas family had to sell the team because while they were winning, they were losing. And Billy's had the opportunity to go any place he wanted. He wants to win here. I want to win here - here meaning the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>But Wolff signaled that his willingness to wait on Major League Baseball to give the go-ahead for the San Jose move has limits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I'm not going to continue this (waiting for permission to move) much longer. What we want is an answer. We want a \"Yes, you can relocate, share the district, share the territory\". Or \"You can't.\" We have a way of demanding a vote (from MLB) but that isn't our nature. So the best thing for us to do in the next couple of months is see where we go. After that, though, I think I have to -- I can't even continue to come to these wonderful lunches, I'd feel like (Bernie) Madoff, or somebody.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
