The proposed upgrades are anticipated to include increasing capacity to 5,000 seats, VIP areas, entrance plaza, upgraded concessions, restrooms, indoor locker rooms, broadcasting booth, and a new scoreboard. New seating is intended to be an upgrade from existing bleachers with a mix of individual bucket seats, ten suites, a VIP deck with seating, and bleacher seats with back supports.
