Big League Dreams in August of 2013 will start doing something that no other park does in Manteca. The sports complex will start generating more than $250,000 a year for the distressed municipal general fund.But as far as City Manager Steve Pinkerton is concerned, Manteca is already financially ahead.That’s because the city is avoiding $500,000 a year it would cost to maintain and operate a sports complex with six softball fields minus the soccer arena, two restaurants, and all of the upgrades that make the complex appealing.The city-owned complex was designed and is being operated and maintained for 35 years by BLD. It reaches a five-year milestone in October. That month will mark the first official game at the complex.The fight over whether Manteca should even have a BLD lasted seven years from start to finish making it the longest running political brawl in municipal history.
