<\/a>ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014<\/p>\nParking at Camping World Stadium during major events has been a persistent issue, but a proposed multimillion-dollar parking garage with a rooftop sports field could help alleviate the problem. <\/p>\n
Florida Citrus Sports CEO Steve Hogan presented the plan to the Orange County Tourist Development Tax (TDT) Citizen Advisory Task Force on Wednesday, seeking $54 million in TDT dollars toward the $56 million stadium campus extension. The proposed multi-purpose facility would include a parking garage, a rooftop sports field capable of hosting events, and a helipad. <\/p>\n
Supporters of the project say it would improve safety and accessibility, support year-round activity, and reduce the burden on surrounding neighborhoods. Hogan points to the need for additional parking, comparing Camping World Stadium\u2019s current 3,800-plus parking spaces to the 15,000 to 20,000 spaces available at competing venues in the Southeast with 65,000-plus seats. <\/p>\n
“3,800-plus spaces is not enough,” Hogan said. “You could do eight of these garages obviously, and we can get a little bit closer, but to do none, I think, would be a huge mistake at this point. (…) As you can see, it’s a 422-foot garage, four stories so as not to overwhelm the overall footprint of the campus, but giving us significant capability now to not only do pre- and post-events and event activity on stadium off-days with the event center, but provide a much-needed boost to our parking capacity.” <\/p>\n
Hogan says the project could be shovel-ready within 15 months of approval and open to the public in 30 months. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"$54M in TDT funds requested for new Camping World Stadium parking garage ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Parking at Camping…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":357117,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[41888,23171,1555,145735,56576,145733,9099,677,139,141,140,127507,145734,49792,5204,145732,504,24551],"class_list":["post-357116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-orlando","tag-accessibility","tag-camping-world-stadium","tag-event","tag-helipad","tag-hogan","tag-m-parking-garage","tag-month","tag-neighborhood","tag-orlando","tag-orlando-headlines","tag-orlando-news","tag-parking-space","tag-post-event","tag-pre","tag-project","tag-rooftop-sport-field","tag-safety","tag-supporter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/357116","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=357116"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/357116\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/357117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=357116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=357116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=357116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
