Let's Make A Deal... For years now
Pasco County has been trying to make a decision on what to do with its Pasco tourist tax dollars to generate "heads in beds" for Pasco County. County commissioners seem convinced that a sports venue is the answer,
but can't seem to "make a deal". For years a deal with Saddlebrook Resort over a
Pasco National Tennis Center to be located in Wesley Chapel seemed just around the corner. It crashed and burned in May of 2009 and the Pasco Board of County Commissioners went in another direction, ultimately zeroing in a
Sportsplex USA project. The Sportsplex USA project appeared to "crash and burn" about two weeks ago, and in the past week a
new proposal has been made by Saddlebrook Resort for lacrosse fields in Wesley Chapel. Huh?
