Rays Stadium Deal Holds College Funding
Description
Florida lawmakers are holding off on releasing $50 million earmarked for Hillsborough College’s Dale Mabry campus—where the Tampa Bay Rays plan to build a new stadium—until the team, city, and county finalize their financing agreements. The funds, originally intended for campus upgrades as a public education project, are conditional: the state won’t disburse them unless the stadium deal is locked in. While the Rays envision a massive stadium district that could even reshape the college campus, the money remains on hold, tied to local and team negotiations. Until those agreements are signed, the college’s improvements are stuck in limbo, as lawmakers and the governor await confirmation that the big project is truly moving forward.
