The Seminole Utilities Authority, comprised of city council members, will consider an agreement with a private firm for management of the family entertainment center when it convenes for its regular monthly Tuesday evening.

On the agenda of the Authority meeting is consideration of an agreement with Heyday Entertainment, LLC to manage the center. The proposed agreement states that all expenses will be reimbursed to Heyday from an operating account funded by the Authority and Heyday will receive a percentage of gross revenue. The agreement will be published, in at least condensed form, in the Producer upon final approval.

The center, which has been dubbed “Hey Seminole,” is being constructed on Highway 9, across from Seminole High School. It was the brainchild of the Seminole Youth Council, which was comprised of area high school juniors and seniors. In May 2021 the students pitched the idea to city leadership during a city council meeting. In December of that year, an infrastructure services for land deal was negotiated between the city and RCL Development, advancing the center toward fruition. In January 2023, voters approved two proposals to fund the center: the extension of an existing one cent sales tax and the redirection of the city’s 4% hotel tax.

There are two additional items on the Utilities Authority Agenda related to the entertainment center: Consideration and possible action to approve soliciting bids for construction of a miniature golf course at the Center, and consideration and possible action to approve a change order to the Brunswick Bowling contract for a performance bond to protect the public investment of $833,356.13 at a cost to the Authority of $20,833.90.

The Seminole City Council will meet following meetings of the Airport, Gas, Municipal and Utilities Authorities.
