Tampa Sports Authority committees set FY 2027-2028 budgets, CEO goals, and golf course updates for review
The Tampa Sports Authority's Finance, Executive, and Golf Course committees met July 22–23, 2026, with agendas covering next-year budgets for the stadium, SportsPlex, and Municipal Golf Course, President/CEO performance goals, and golf course operations. Minutes have not yet been published for any of the three meetings, so no votes or final decisions can be confirmed from the available records.
Finance Committee — FY 2027-2028 budgets
The Finance Committee met July 22, 2026, with the largest set of action items on the week's agendas. The committee was scheduled to consider approval of:
- FY 2027-2028 Stadium Capital and Operating Budget
- FY 2027-2028 SportsPlex Capital and Operating Budget
- FY 2027 Municipal Golf Course Budget
- NYY Direct Purchase for GMS Field Scoreboard
- Co-Promotion Events for Monster Mash and Neverland Cup at Tournament SportsPlex
The agenda also listed review of May and June 2026 financial reports and discussion of board policies. Because minutes are not yet published, the outcome of each listed item — whether approved, deferred, or amended — is not confirmed in the record.
Executive Committee — President/CEO performance goals
The Executive Committee met July 22, 2026. The agenda listed one primary action item: a request for approval of the President/CEO Performance Goals for FY 27. Staff reports and new business were also scheduled for discussion. No vote tally or outcome is available; minutes have not been published.
Golf Course Committee — staff reports
The Golf Course Committee met July 23, 2026, to receive informational staff reports. The agenda included:
- Revenue and Expense Comparison report
- Golf Course and Capital Projects Update
- Air Quality Reports regarding course soil fumigation
- Golf Course Calendar
No action items were listed on the available agenda. Minutes have not been published, so no discussion details or findings can be confirmed.
What this means for residents
The budget items before the Finance Committee cover operating and capital spending for the stadium, SportsPlex, and Municipal Golf Course — public facilities the Authority manages. Dollar amounts and vote tallies are not available in the current record; once minutes are published, they will show what was approved and at what cost. The golf course air quality reports relate to soil fumigation at the course, a topic that can affect nearby residents.
Coming up
No upcoming Tampa Sports Authority meetings are listed for the next 14 days (through August 17, 2026), according to the available schedule. Residents seeking confirmed outcomes from the July 22–23 meetings should watch for published minutes from the Finance, Executive, and Golf Course committees.
