Proposed Hamilton stadium site voted down

Hamilton seems to have run out of options in regards to a new stadium.

City councillors, in a 9-6 vote, have opted against Mayor Bob Bratina's motion to pursue Confederation Park as a potential site.

The decision would appear to leave Hamilton without a stadium site with just over a month before the deadline set by Pan Am Games organizers.

The organizing body gave the city a deadline of Feb. 1 to finalize a deal for the stadium or it will look elsewhere.

All other debated sites have either been discounted as unaffordable to the city or in the case of the West Harbour site, as unacceptable to the CFL's Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

The Pan Am Games will take place in the Greater Toronto Area, Hamilton and Welland, Ont., in 2015.
