赫里斯郡體育委員會大地震

主管赫里斯郡大休斯敦地區體育事務委員會週五宣布撤銷執行長鄭妮布克之職位，並立即生效，並將開始徵求人選繼任這項非常重要之體育活動工作。

惠特曼市長在一次訪談中表示，我們要積極籌備許多重要體育賽事，其中包括2026年世界杯足球賽在休市舉辦之七埸比賽。

布克之離職被認為是市長上任後力求革新之行動,其中包括更換市政府公共建設局 ,圖書館 ,房屋計劃局及警消部門之主管。

休斯敦目前有四大休育中心設施，其中包括英式足球場,本田中心,NRG 中心及棒球場,全部設施至少超過十年，有的甚至己超過了二十年之久。

惠特曼市長上台之後,正在大刀闊斧整頓市府人事，擴建會議中心，以全面迎接新時代之來臨。

The Harris County Sports Authority Fires CEO

The Harris County-Houston Sports Authority on Friday fired CEO Janis 

Burke after 18 years of service to the organization. The board also voted to 

let Chair J. Kent Friedman appoint a temporary CEO.

In a statement, the board thanked Burke for the time she worked diligently and tirelessly, not just to improve our world-class facilities, but also for her management and coordination of billions of dollars of economic activities for this community.

Mayor Whitmire said the timing was imperative amid Houston‘s preparations to host seven games of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. He said we wanted to show our people and our energy, our diversity and how great a city we are, but we can’t do that if we don't get the Sport Authority single-focused on working with these organizations and FIFA.
