英格尔伍德市长推动全面审计 SoFi 球场欠税：周二市议会表决，费用不超 32.5 万美元
英格尔伍德市长 James T. Butts Jr. 与市议员 Dionne Faulk 计划在 10 月 13 日（周二）市议会上提案，聘请独立审计机构彻查 SoFi 球场及 Hollywood Park 向市里缴纳的门票税、停车税、销售税、房产税是否足额，与法律实际应缴额对比。该动议还将要求市经理在官网按季度发布"球场税收透明报告"，列明各税种征收额、售票或赠票数、门票税应收实收额、活动日市府成本及报销额。据市政府新闻稿，审计费用预计不超过 32.5 万美元，从市一般基金支出。背景：上月，洛杉矶县高等法院法官裁定，支撑 50 亿美元球场建设的开发协议因 2018 年一项无关法律判例而失效；市府认为协议已无效，Hollywood Park 则称履行了承诺、是居民的"好伙伴"。Butts 在声明中称必须"逐笔逐票"算清每一分钱。Hollywood Park 未立即回应置评请求。（来源：LA Daily News、市政府新闻稿）
Inglewood Mayor Pushes Full Audit of SoFi Stadium Taxes; Council Vote Tuesday
Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts Jr. and Councilmember Dionne Faulk plan to introduce a motion at the City Council meeting Tuesday, Oct. 13, to hire an independent auditor to review taxes paid by SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park against what the city says it is actually owed under the law. The audit would cover ticket, parking, sales and property taxes. The motion would also direct the city manager to publish a quarterly "Stadium Revenue Transparency Report" on the city's website, detailing each tax collected, tickets sold or given away, admission tax owed and received, and event-day costs to the city and amounts reimbursed. The audit is estimated to cost no more than $325,000, paid from the city's general fund, according to the city's press release. Background: last month, a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge ruled that the development agreement underpinning the $5 billion stadium project had been voided by an unrelated 2018 legal precedent. The city contends the agreement is void; Hollywood Park says it has honored its commitments and called itself a "good partner" to residents. Butts said in a statement the city needs "an independent audit, line by line and ticket by ticket." (Sources: LA Daily News, City of Inglewood press release.)
