Negotiations to keep the Chargers in San Diego appear to be ramping up.

Team president Dean Spanos met with San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer and county supervisor Ron Roberts on Thursday to continue talks about a new stadium arrangement.

Now, the two sides will wait a report from a mayor-appointed council before entering into formal discussions.

“We look forward to beginning formal discussions with our respective negotiating teams shortly after the Citizens’ Stadium Advisory Group releases its final recommendations in two weeks,” Craig Gustafson, a spokesperson for the mayor’s office, told KPBS.

In the interim, the Chargers are reportedly moving ahead with plans to acquire land upon which to build a new Los Angeles-area stadium in Carson, Calif.
