Stadium Progress

When word came out that Harris County Commissioners Sylvia Garcia and El Fraco Lee would support the contribution of $10 million from the County to help with infrastructure improvement related to the construction of a soccer specific stadium in downtown Houston, Dynamo fans were a bit concerned about the various conditions that the County was going to attach to its money. It does not appear that the County's conditions will negative impact on the potential stadium as both the team and the City of Houston have indicated that they don't have any serious problems with said conditions.
