A new, scaled down Triumph ask for a field house concept utilizing the existing Pensacola Civic Center site will be discussed by the BCC on 7-5-2018 |
I have been sent a revised proposal for consideration by the board on the Triumph Gulf Coast Field House proposal.
At the last meeting when this discussion was held, the board was not unified on any single plan in any single location. The general sense I had was there was support for the field house only, and only at a downtown location.
I discussed (here and here) the possibility of just moving forward independently with repairs to our existing facility, the Civic Center, in order to move this item off our plates and to get another 20 years out of our existing facility.
But this new proposal is intriguing, so it will be discussed at our first meeting in July.
A new $35 Million Dollar field house complex ($10 Million of which would be requested from Triumph), with parking, commercial, and restaurant spaces--within the footprint of the existing Civic Center property. Would this sort of a project win support from the board? We will have an answer July 5th--because this will be discussed. Lots of questions, but this is intriguing.
