<b>Minor League Baseball Update</b>
The Loudoun County Land Use and Transportation Committee recently voted in favor to permit the proposed minor league ballpark at Kincora. The recommendation will now go before the county’s Board of Supervisors for a vote on July 21.
The 424-acre Kincora Mixed-Use Development was rejected by the Board of Supervisors in 2007, but that proposal did not include a 5,500-seat baseball stadium, which would be home to a Loudoun-based minor league team in the independent Atlantic League.
Developers and government officials are encouraging residents to attend a July 20th public input session in front of the Board to voice their support or dissent for the project. The session begins at 6:30 p.m. at the Loudoun County Government Center (1 Harrison St., SE in Leesburg).
