					<description><![CDATA[A proposed expansion of Al Lang Stadium on the downtown St. Pete waterfront would require bed tax funds from the county. So would a new baseball stadium if the Rays decide to stay in St. Pete. But contrary to buzz following reports Tuesday on the proposal, one project would not rob funds from the other.

					<description><![CDATA[There’s not much going on at St. Pete City Council this week. The board is faced with only a handful of presentations from various groups around town and a change to an existing resolution. Even though nothing substantive is planned this week, the issue at hand is a biggie.

					<description><![CDATA[St. Pete City Council voted unanimously to approve three measures related to the Tampa Bay Rays continuing to play baseball in St. Petersburg. Council member Wengay Newton was absent for the vote. The first measure is a symbolic resolution showing council’s intention to work with the Major League Baseball team to keep them in St. Petersburg beyond the terms of their current contract that requires the team to play ball in Tropicana Field through 2027. “I hope the Rays understand&#8230;]]></description>
