Still No Site for Cubs Spring Training Project

The official word from City of Mesa officials is that there has been no specific location chosen for the proposed new Chicago Cubs spring training stadium and practice facilities. However, the number of possible sites up for consideration varies from official to official; one says two, another says six and maybe a third says ten. This has led skeptics to believe the city is not exactly forthcoming on the issue and that indeed a location has been chosen but not revealed. Giving some credence to this position is the fact that the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper has published a photograph of Red Mountain with a caption describing the view as that from the new stadium. This could naturally lead many people to think the project will land at the doorstep of the Red Mountain Ranch planned community. Clearly, Mesa does not have their act together on this matter and the more time that passes, the less credibility city hall will have with residents.
