Team owners say they're doing their part by staying in contact with MLS officials.
"They've told us that we've answered all their questions. We continue to dialog with them, ask ideas, share some thoughts, but they'll get back with us later in the year once they've made that decision," said Warren Smith, Republic FC President/Founder.
Mayor Kevin Johnson, team owners and business leaders are developing a strategy to keep Sacramento on the MLS' radar.
There is talk of the league eventually expanding beyond its 24 teams.
