The Sports Authority has a notice posted about its next board meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, June 28. Let’s see if there’s anything interesting on the agenda:
6. Discussion and possible action on resolution approving an agreement with Houston YET Center, Inc. for the development of youth, educational and recreational facilities at Finnigan Park and approving other matters related thereto.
7. Discussion and possible action on resolution approving an agreement with Hermes Architects to serve as the architect for the YET Center and approving other matters related thereto.
Sigh. That would be the NFL’s Youth Education Town.
It’s time to revisit the Sports Authority’s mission statement:
The Harris County-Houston Sports Authority, “The Sports Authority” is charged with the responsibility of rejuvenating the infrastructure for our community’s professional sports as well as the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
It doesn’t say anything about developing youth, educational and recreational facilities, even for the NFL.
