City Council tables $1.1M decisions for Everett AquaSox stadium
EVERETT — The Everett City Council voted unanimously Wednesday to further delay a decision on whether to pay consultants $1.1 million to take the first steps toward a new AquaSox stadium.
In light of new Major League Baseball requirements for minor league teams, the city is weighing three options: update the current stadium, demolish and rebuild Funko Field, or move to a new site. Last year, a report identified possible sites near Angel of the Winds Arena, the Everett Mall or Kasch Park.
It was pitched as a new 3,500-seat outdoor, multi-use stadium that would double as a baseball stadium and outdoor venue.
The council was set to make a decision on the contracts in the coming weeks. A deadline was not specified.
