The proposed National Football League stadium is expected to bring thousands of work opportunities in the area and this is the primary reason why the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce is fully supporting the project. Chamber marketing and communications director Gwen Oldham said job creation is very important as it stimulates the economy.

The $800 million project is being proposed by Majestic Realty Co which is owned by billionaire developer Ed Roski, Jr. If it pushes through, the stadium will seat on a 600-acre lot near the freeway exchange.

If all goes well, the NFL stadium will be completed by 2012 and the jobs it could generate will tremendously benefit the economy.  The project would generate 12,000 job opportunities in the construction sector alone and about 7,000 full time job opportunities.

Even the Independent Cities Association has come out in full support of the project. However, this is not the case with the Los Angeles County Democratic Party and the City of Walnut which are opposing the project saying it will disrupt the quiet community and will generate traffic in the area.
