Mesa voters will not decide the fate of a $56 million state-of-the-art sports and tournament complex this year.
City council members in late June declined to vote to put the measure on the November ballot after some argued the concept was promising but needed further vetting.
The proposal for the dual-stadium, indoor/outdoor facility near Brown Road and Loop 202 — with 24 fields, 8,000 seats and a 110,000-square-foot field house — had drawn mixed reactions since tourism organization Visit Mesa unveiled it in December.
