The A's, who are scheduled to move to Las Vegas before the 2028 season, met their year-end goals of beginning the concrete phase, having cranes in place and putting in the first buttress and concrete column.
"I feel great about (the progress)," Badain said. "Obviously, we know the workforce. We know the construction firm, and the (supervisor) is the same super that delivered on Allegiant. When he tells me things are good, I don't worry."
The price tag has gone up considerably twice, rising from $1.5 billion to $1.75 billion to the current estimate. A's vice chairman Sandy Dean indicated he didn't expect the cost to increase much more.
Nevada and Clark County have approved up to $380 million in public funds for the ballpark, and the A's have said they will cover the remaining expenses. Owner John Fisher has been seeking investors, but Dean said he didn't have an update on that effort.
Steve Hill, CEO and president of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, said A's officials have not yet asked for their share of public assistance.
This Las Vegas Stadium Authority meeting occurred one day short of the one-year anniversary of when it approved lease, non-relocation and development documents, the last major hurdles before construction. The lease and non-relocation agreements each cover 30 years.
The A's this year played the first of at least three seasons at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento. They played their previous 57 seasons in Oakland, California.
Management has been constructing a roster to be competitive when the club arrives in Las Vegas. Several young players are under contract through at least 2028, including Nick Kurtz and Jacob Wilson, who finished 1-2 in the AL Rookie of the Year voting. Kurtz was the unanimous choice.
