Philadelphia City Council advances discussion on a $1.55 billion 76ers arena despite opposition.

The Philadelphia City Council has passed resolutions to allow further discussion on the proposed $1.55 billion arena for the 76ers, despite five members voting against it. Their opposition was aimed at delaying the vote until concerns about the project's Community Benefits Agreement and Environmental Opportunity Plan are addressed. Public hearings are set to begin on November 12, as the council aims to ensure transparency and compliance with state laws.
