The Nacogdoches County Commissioners' Court will discuss a proposal by an outside management firm to oversee and help improve operations of the Nacogdoches Expo and Civic Center when they meet for a workshop today.

A Global Spectrum representative has said most of the facility's shortcomings are funding related and overlapping property lines with the city and county.

The firms Senior Vice President of Business Development Frank Russo says the Nacogdoches Expo and Civic Center doesn't seem to have the funding to secure the volume of business that's necessary.

Nacogdoches County Judge Mike Perry has said the court may vote after the workshop to hire Global Spectrum or not.
