The Council of the District of Columbia voted in favor of the measure, confirming the team&#8217;s expected return to its former home.\n\nThe decision, made with an 11-2 vote, allows the team to return to the site that was their home for more than three decades. Despite being considered a formality, the vote was almost affected by last-minute requests.\n\nCommanders President Mark Clouse expressed concern over new demands that could have jeopardized the deal, including an amendment that imposed an annual penalty of $10 million if the deadline for housing construction was not met. This amendment, among twelve others, was ultimately rejected.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Today is a historic day for D.C., the Commanders organization, and our fans. With the Council&#8217;s approval, we can move forward with the transformative RFK project that will bring lasting economic growth to our city.<\/p><cite>Josh Harris, Commanders Owner<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe $2.7 billion investment project will cover the construction of a stadium with a capacity for 65,000 spectators, with a contribution of $1 billion from the district.\n\nThe goal is to inaugurate the stadium in 2030, with the hope of hosting major events such as the Women&#8217;s World Cup in 2031. The 174-acre property will be transformed into a mixed-use complex with housing, sports facilities, and retail stores. The stadium will be covered, but the possibility of a retractable roof is still under consideration.\n\nThe return to the old RFK Stadium site, which was the home of the team from 1961 to 1996, is a sentimental moment for fans, as the team experienced great success during that time, including five Super Bowls and three victories. The team currently plays in Landover, Maryland, nine miles from the RFK site.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Commanders Return to Washington: A Historic Step The Commanders&#8217; return to Washington is official.
