Perhaps First Mention of World Sports Park at Public Works Board - July 11, 2012

The July 11, 2012, meeting of the Board of Public Works  appears to be the first time a contract was let regarding the 'Gaelic Sports' park known as the World Sports Park.

Larry Jones presents a contract to scope out the feasibility of creating a second cricket field at a park on South Post Road, north of Brookville Road, that would meet international standards.  He notes that the contract would be with Crawford, Murphy, and Tilly, Inc. because it was chosen by Indy Parks  for the work back in 2010.  ReBuildIndy money would be used for this initial work, but Jones does say that if it is determined feasible, then the cost would be 'substantially higher' - but no cost estimate is asked for or divulged.  The motion almost fails for lack of a second.
