Normal Approves Proposed Study for Sports Complex

Normal could get a new sports facility in the next few years. The town council  voted unanimously to approve a resolution Monday night that would fund a feasibility study. The study would reveal whether or not Normal is capable of bringing a multi-sport facility to the area, and evaluate its proposed economic impact. Council officials and some community members believe the complex would bring in more people to stay in hotels, eat local food, and provide more jobs, resulting in a boost in the economy.
