COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Columbia Parks and Recreation discussed plans for renovations to the Rainbow Softball Complex at Cosmo Park during an interested parties meeting Tuesday night.

The city plans to install LED lighting and concrete backstops to all six fields at the complex. The upgrades are expected to cost $750,000 and are funded by the Parks Sales Tax.

The project is expected to start in October 2026 and is planned to be finished by April 2027.

The Rainbow Softball Complex has not seen significant work since 2012. The city also plans to renovate the concession area, playground, and batting cages in the future.

The project will go to the Columbia City Council for final approval.
