Marble Falls sports complex might add $1 million to area

MARBLE FALLS — Steering committee members for the first time saw estimates on the economic impact of a proposed sports complex, which proponents say could add $1 million to local coffers and attract thousands of visitors the first year.
According to consultants, the first two of four phases of the project could lure 214,000 visitors to Marble Falls and generate revenues of $850,000-$1.1 million.
