SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The San Diego City Council Tuesday unanimously approved an amendment in a joint agreement with the San Diego Padres to allow football to be played in Petco Park, clearing the way for the downtown ballpark to host the Holiday Bowl in December.
A previous joint use and management agreement between the city and team explicitly prohibited football at Petco Park. But when the city sold SDCCU Stadium the longtime home of the Holiday Bowl to San Diego State University last year, and SDSU subsequently demolished it to make way for a west campus and Aztec Stadium, it left the 43-year-old bowl game without a home.

Restaurants across San Diego soon may be allowed to make their COVID-19 outdoor dining areas permanent in exchange for paying the city a fee to help make streets and sidewalks more inviting places to hang out.
Some revenue from the new fee would be spent on sidewalk widening, street trees and other upgrades to make streets more appealing to walkers and cyclists. Money from the fee also would help boost outdoor dining in low-income areas.
Called “Spaces as Places,” the proposal unveiled by San Diego officials Monday would essentially make permanent the emergency outdoor dining permits the city issued to restaurants across the city shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic began.
