Five new baseball diamonds could be on the way for Woodstock by the start of the 2016 season. City Council approved a Rec Advisory Committee motion on Thursday night, to move phase one of the Woodall Farm Recreation Complex up by four years, following strong support from the community, and an immediate need for new diamonds. Rec Advisory Co-Chair Dan Gray says he couldn't be happier that the project was moved into capital budget deliberations for 2014. Gray says they can now focus on all of the paperwork that comes with the project in order to see Phase one complete by May 1, 2016. "We're going to continue doing the studies, we're going to continue designing the complex, so that we have a premiere facility." There's been calls from Woodstock's baseball community to make the project happen even sooner than 2016, but Gray says the timeline is simply too tight. "Because you have to do the infrastructure underneath of it for phase 2, there's a lot of digging. There's a lot of stuff under the ground, and under the surface that people don't know about. And even 2016, as much as I'm really pushing for it, that's a tight timeline." The timeline for the project was bumped up by 4-years last night from May 1st, 2020, to May 1st, 2016.
