MIAMI (AP) - The Florida Marlins' bid to build a new ballpark in Miami has stalled again.
Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Alvarez on Monday said that until city officials can decide whether they want the new stadium in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood, county officials will no longer work on the deal. Alvarez called the political climate that surrounds the proposal "toxic."City commissioners are expected to take up most of the stadium agreement on Friday. In February, city commissioners met for 7 1/2 hours without reaching a final decision on the plan to build a 37,000-seat stadium.
The meeting was thrown into chaos when a commissioner proposed amendments to the agreement that dealt with a parking garage, naming rights to the facility and the potential sale of the team.
