"One plan would bring a new Frontier League team -- and a $26 million sports complex -- to the McHenry County College campus in Crystal Lake. The college would build the complex and pay for it in part through a 20-year lease with the baseball team, according to developer Mark Houser, one of the partners in the effort.
Houser said he and other investors are businessmen who hope to earn a profit in a venture that they say could also be a point of civic pride.
An agreement with the college has been signed, and now Crystal Lake officials are weighing its merits. Organizers hope to be playing ball by 2009."
I would love this.
