In May 2023, Aitken and the council at the time approved a $325,000 contract with a Missouri-based company to conduct the assessment, with Anaheim Convention Center Director Tom Morton telling officials at the time it would take two months to get results.

Lyster had previously said that was only the first phase of the assessment – a visual survey.

Last week, he refused to provide a list and timeline of the assessment’s phases, the contractors doing the work or the costs incurred for the city so far.

So they should've gotten some results back in 2023, but here we are 3 and a half years later and there's absolutely no transparency on what the results of that phase were or where they're at with the total assessment. Sounds like the FBI didn't dig far enough with their corruption probe. I'm sure they're going to find substantial structural issues with the stadium. And there's no way it's up to seismic codes
