Seminole County voted to move forward with a proposed regional indoor sports complex near the Boombah Sports Complex and Orlando Sanford International Airport.
The action authorizes County staff to proceed with soliciting architectural, engineering, and construction management services for the project. The costs are estimated at $160- $175 million.
Designed as a multi-purpose regional destination, the proposed facility would support basketball, volleyball, wrestling, cheer and dance competitions, graduations, banquets, and other large community events. Current conceptual plans include up to 12 basketball courts, 22 volleyball courts, championship seating, flexible event space, and a 25-court beach volleyball complex.
Tourist Improvement District (TID) funding and Tourist Development Tax (TDT) revenues will be used. Hotels in the region have agreed to a self-assement on hotel room to help pay for the facility.
The facility is projected to generate approximately $2.4 billion in total net economic benefit, including direct visitor spending at hotels, restaurants, retail establishments, and local transportation providers.
