GRAND PRAIRIE – The city council has approved plans to redevelop the former Texas AirHogs baseball stadium into a Major League Cricket facility.
The stadium will be renamed and host a Dallas franchise team for Major League Cricket, which will launch by 2022. The league will take on two ten-year leases and pay $20,000 a month to use the stadium.
The city proposal contributes $1.3 million cash grant, $200,000 for maintenance, and a full rebate on taxes for construction materials.
Major League Cricket plans to make a seven-figure investment, including the addition of two fields adjacent to the stadium.
Redevelopment will take place through 2021.
