Trying to read through this thread, but I haven't really been able to find a timeline. I've seen the poor renderings, but I was just wondering if anyone knows what the plan is for the soccer fields. Every time I drive by, I'm shocked that nothing is happening, and they haven't cut the grass once this year. They already missed out on 1 youth soccer season this spring,

Sorry if I missed it.

We interviewed Mayor John Ewing Jr. when I was on Grow Omaha a couple weeks ago. Mayor Ewing said everything came in over budget. The Budget was $50 million and the bids came in at $100 million. Trying to get it back to $50 million. They want to get started this November.

I ask the question at the 8:35 mark





Also WOWT just ran this story. Don't watch the video as its from 2024, only the text in the link is relevant. Still has Mayor Stothert, Deb Ward from Visit Omaha, Matt Kalcebich, parks director... None of which are still in those positions.

A lot of the fields are now graded, and what I assume are light pole bases have sprung up on the edges of the fields.
