The Oakland Raiders reportedly owe more than $800,000 in unpaid parking revenue to the stadium they will call home in 2017.

The Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum board has discovered that the Raiders are at least four years behind in paying parking revenue, Doug Sovern of KCBS News reports.

The stadium, commonly called the Oakland Coliseum, is jointly owned by the City of Oakland and Alameda County.

The Raiders recently were granted NFL approval to relocate to Las Vegas, but plan to play at the Coliseum for the 2017 season and perhaps two additional seasons while their new stadium is built.

The Coliseum board will not use the issue of unpaid parking revenue as a means to void the Raiders' lease for 2017, according to Sovern, and will instead allow the team to pay what it owes.
