On March 5, the Manassas City Council held a closed-door session to discuss "terms and conditions for the disposition of publicly held real property" located at Nokesville Road and Godwin Drive, where the baseball complex sits. The meeting was held under Virginia Code § 2.2-3711(A)(3), which allows real estate negotiations to be discussed in private. Following the closed session, the council made no public statements regarding the discussion, leaving uncertainty about the future of the property.
In 2021, the City of Manassas granted Micron Technology an option to purchase the complex as part of the company’s potential expansion plans. The agreement allowed GMBL to continue using the fields for up to 24 months after a sale while the city explored alternative locations for the league. However, Micron never exercised the option, and the baseball league has remained in place.
