Caddo Parish Voters Reject $60 Million Sports Complex Bond
Caddo Parish voters have rejected a $60 million bond proposition intended to fund a proposed regional sports complex, leaving parish leaders to reconsider the project's future and explore alternative funding or scaled-back plans.
Shreveport Texarkana, LA, November 5, 2026 — In Caddo Parish, voters have decisively rejected a significant financial proposal that would have funded the development of a proposed regional sports complex. The bond proposition, seeking $60 million, failed to gain voter approval.
The outcome of the vote leaves parish leaders with the task of reassessing the future of the sports complex project. Officials will now need to consider various pathways forward, including the exploration of alternative funding sources that do not rely on bond measures, or potentially scaling back the scope and ambition of the proposed facility.
Specific details regarding the sports complex, such as its planned location, the types of sports facilities it would encompass, and the projected economic impact, were part of the proposition’s broader context. The rejection now necessitates a re-evaluation of these elements and the feasibility of proceeding with the project under different financial models.
The exact margin of the bond proposition’s defeat was not provided. Parish leadership is expected to convene to discuss the next steps in addressing the stalled sports complex initiative.
