Hartford to seek private money to help build stadium for Rock Cats

The proposed minor league baseball stadium in Hartford for the Rock Cats.

On Friday, Hartford Mayor Pedro Segarra changed his proposal to lure the New Britain Rock Cats minor league baseball team in the capital city. Segarra withdrew a proposal to the Hartford City Council that the city build a $60 million stadium for the Double AA team and called for the stadium to be financed through a public-private partnership, including some private money. Last month, Segarra and the Rock Cats announced that the team would move to Hartford in April 2016 and that taxpayers would build a stadium in the city. More on this story from CT News Junkie.
