College Station City Council Directs Staff To Proceed With Adding Baseball Fields At Veterans Park

College Station city council members express no opposition to adding three baseball fields at Veterans Park. This follows construction coming to a halt at Texas Independence Park…originally named Southeast Park off Rock Prairie Road…due to soil conditions. The council was told soil testing continues on the Veterans Park property by a company that is not the one who conducted tests at Texas Independence Park, where construction was stopped after the city spent more than $5 million in infrastructure. Staff told the council the infrastructure that was built at Texas Independence Park will be used. At Veterans Park, the council was told that if additional fields are built near the University Drive entrance, it would three or four years before construction is completed. The council was also told that staff is in communication with youth baseball officials about alternative sites for games that will be displaced by ballfield renovations at Bachmann Park.
