MILWAUKEE, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — Some Milwaukee alders don’t want the city paying for AmFam Field improvements.
Five members of the 15 member Milwaukee Common Council have released a statement opposing city funding for upgrades to the Brewers stadium. Alders Jonathan Brostoff, Mark Borkowski, Russell Stamper, Larresa Taylor and Lamont Westmoreland say “not a dime” of money from the city should go towards renovations of the ballpark, which opened in 2001 as Miller Park.
In May, the Milwaukee County Board unanimously opposed putting county money toward AmFam Field repairs.
