The County intends to support construction and operation of the youth sports park in a meaningful public-private partnership, given that the site sits above a decommissioned County-owned landfill. The scope of the public-private partnership will be determined in coordination with the private partner as part of this solicitation process.</span></p><p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 107%; font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 107%;\">The County envisions a new community asset that provides high-quality open space and youth sports facilities to local, regional, and national tournament audiences. The park should both create new sports amenities for residents and generate tourism activity for the County by operating tournaments that draw new families to Pinellas County.</span></p><p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 107%; font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 107%;\">The site, described further in this solicitation, is centrally located in the middle of the Tampa Bay Area&rsquo;s 3.2 million residents and near both major international airports. There is a large and growing youth sports tourism industry in the southeast that the County hopes to capture a greater share of that tourism travel. </span></p><p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 107%; font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 107%;\">This solicitation is <strong>Phase 1</strong> of a two-phase solicitation process.
