Tonight, Cobb County government released the memorandum of understanding the Cobb County Commission has reached with the Atlanta Braves for the team’s proposed stadium near the intersection of I-75 and I-285 in Cobb County.

The MOU, as it’s referred to by government officials, details the proposed financial agreement between the county and the baseball team.

The Commission will vote on the MOU a week from today. If approved, the Atlanta Braves would leave Turner Field in downtown Atlanta and build a new stadium in Cobb County in time of the 2017 major league baseball season.
