HUNTINGTON BEACH

The Ocean View Little League is closer to getting a new home after the City Council approved a conceptual plan last week for a youth sports complex at Murdy Park and Park View School. Little League officials have been meeting with city and Ocean View School District officials since the beginning of the year to determine where the 600-member organization will go now that their current home, the closed Rancho View school site, has been leased to Eagle Hardware & Garden.

The city’s plan calls for the closed Park View campus to be reconfigured to accommodate six Little League fields to replace the six at Rancho View. More fields will be available at the adjoining Murdy Park when the adult softball leagues are relocated to Central Park in 2002, said Ron Hagan, the city’s director of community services.
