SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) – The City Council is expected to vote Monday on a proposal for a special baseball field for mentally and physically disabled players in Sioux City.
The Sioux City Journal reports that if the development agreement were approved, Miracle League of Sioux City would be allowed to build a $750,000 field at the Riverside Recreational Sports Complex. The project would include a playground.

If the agreement were approved, the city would give the developer a $330,000 grant. Construction would begin May 12 and end on Sept. 15. Miracle League provides baseball for people regardless of mental or physical capability. There are similar facilities in Des Moines and in Omaha, Nebraska. The field and playground would be built on custom-designed, rubberized material that would accommodate wheelchairs or other devices.
