The whole spring training stadium location discussion at last night's City Commission meeting
This is somewhat confusing as public comment on this item, resolution to support a major league baseball training camp at John Prince Park, was lumped in with other items on the consent agenda where the item remained. So, public comment includes other items that were on the consent agenda as well as items that were not on the agenda.
I pulled out Mel and Vinnie's leading of the crowd in Take Me Out to the Ballgame and it will be its own video. For now, you can view it by going to the 11 minute mark of this one.
At the end, Commissioner McVoy voted against adopting all the items on the consent agenda and everyone else voted in favor, which included the resolution on the baseball stadium. He had wanted some acknowledgement in it that took into consideration the concerns of residents in neighboring communities. The resolution stands as is.
