The latest attempt to add a new voice to the committee examining the future of a baseball venue in Omaha has fallen short.

The panel is looking into options ranging from renovating Rosenblatt Stadium to opting for a new ballpark.

Councilmen Garry Gernandt, Jim Suttle and Franklin Thompson advanced the names of former Omaha Mayor P.J. Morgan and that of Richard Brown, Vice President of US Trucking, as possible additions to the committee.

The effort has been shot down.

Gernandt was notified over the weekend that Mayor Fahey declined to expand the committee.
