Members of the Cleveland Browns were in Columbus late last Wednesday making a pitch to a legislation delegation for building a new stadium in Brook Park.
CLEVELAND, Ohio -
Rep. Bride Rose Sweeney attended that meeting where both renovating the current downtown stadium, and a new dome in Brook Park were discussed. Owners of the Cleveland Browns, Jimmy and Dee Haslam were not in attendance according to Sweeney’s office. According to Sweeney, the early architectural renderings did show a domed stadium in Brook Park with a large area around the new facility, much larger than could be completed downtown.Sweeney said she left the meeting without developing a favorite project at this time, saying she wants to see how much each project would cost, how much money the state will ask for, and she wants to hear directly from Browns fans.
Governor Mike DeWine’s office also confirmed the meeting took place, but DeWine was not a part of the conversation.Whether the Browns pitching both projects is a chess move in negotiations with Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb remains to be seen.‘Beloved’ Parma restaurant to close after over 40 yearsCleveland arson suspects indicted on 27 charges
