The 49ers are trying to end a long stalemate with the city of Santa Clara, offering to settle its legal fights over Levi’s Stadium.
The issue started in 2017, soon after the stadium opened.
City auditors accused the Niners of not giving the city its fair share of revenue from the stadium.
The city council tried to fire the team as the stadium’s manager, which would take away its authority for events, concerts and even its own games.
It’s one of the biggest lawsuits both sides are tangled in.
Santa Clara’s city manager confirmed that the team has reached out, but settlement talks are still in the early phases.
More needs to happen before the mayor and city council decide next steps.
