<P> The day following the conclusion of the 2015 regular season, the Chargers, Rams, and Raiders all filed to relocate to Los Angeles . On January 12, 2016, the NFL owners voted 30--2 to allow the Rams to return to Los Angeles and approved the Inglewood stadium project over the Carson project . The Chargers were given a one - year approval to relocate, conditioned on negotiating a lease agreement with the Rams or an agreement to partner with the Rams on the new stadium construction . </P> <P> On January 14, 2016, the team filed paperwork for official trademark protection of the term "Los Angeles Chargers" for the purposes of running and marketing a professional football franchise . After two weeks of negotiation, the Chargers and Rams on January 29, 2016 reached an agreement in principle on sharing the planned Los Angeles Stadium at Hollywood Park . The Chargers would contribute a $200 million stadium loan from the NFL and personal seat license fees to the construction costs and would pay $1 per year in rent to the Rams . The Chargers had continued preliminary work on a ballot initiative for public approval on a new facility . On November 8, 2016, Measure C was voted down (57% opposed over 43% in support). On December 14, 2016, at an owners' meeting, the terms of the Chargers and Rams lease agreement, as well as the team's debt ceiling were approved thus taking the first steps for a possible relocation to Los Angeles in 2017 . </P> <P> Spanos announced the relocation in a controversial letter to San Diego Chargers fans posted to the team's official site on January 12, 2017 . The team will play as the Los Angeles Chargers starting in the 2017 season at StubHub Center in Carson, California, although the stadium seats well below the 50,000 the minimum that the NFL set even for temporary homes following the 1970 merger . The current seating for their temporary home stands at seating for 30,000 fans and is shared by the MLS soccer team, LA Galaxy . This will serve as the Chargers temporary home field until they join the Rams at the new stadium in Inglewood . </P> <P> With the relocation announcement, the Chargers unveiled a new alternate logo incorporating the letters "LA" with a lightning bolt . The logo was immediately widely ridiculed, in part for its resemblance to the Los Angeles Dodgers logo, by fans, the media, and even other professional sports franchises . The team tried to diffuse the controversy by changing the color scheme before scrapping it altogether after two days . </P>
