		Since the announcement, city and CMFS officials have been reluctant to reveal any additional details about the stadium's financing or its eventual construction, saying nothing is certain until the preliminary agreement is signed later this year, according to CMFS spokesman Daniel Macho.
		Revitalization suggestions have ranged from the predictable, another stadium, to the practical, a supermarket and day-care center.
