Gilbert may operate the former site of Big League Dreams itself as the town remains knee-deep in litigation with the former operator.

The proposal is for the town to operate the eight lighted ballparks and indoor soccer pavilion at Elliot District Park, near Power and Elliot roads, and contract with an operator to oversee concessions.

The Gilbert Town Council stepped in that direction June 21 and will discuss plans further in August. The council also approved $2.6 million more for repairs on the park it abruptly shuttered over safety concerns nearly a year ago. Big League Dreams, a national company, sharply rebuked the town’s move to close the park, with staff claiming there were no safety concerns.
