Baytown Pursues Exit Strategy
for Troon Golf Contract

The City of Baytown is reevaluating operations at Tabbs Bay Golf Course, including the management contract with Troon Golf, LLC due to rising costs and underperformance.

In May, the Baytown City Council approved a $1.9 million short-term agreement with Troon to cover vendor payments, sustain course operations, and complete the on-site restaurant. However, financial projections from the company failed to meet expectations.

Troon originally estimated nearly 16,000 budgeted rounds of golf would be played in 2024, but actual numbers were right at 6,000 rounds. The company projected 27,000 rounds for 2025, with the City responsible for covering any shortfalls. With Troon already reaching the financial cap of its agreement, City officials have determined continuing the partnership is not likely viable for the future.

City Manager Jason Reynolds said, “The numbers didn’t add up and we can’t continue taking on unnecessary financial risk.”

The City will now evaluate future possibilities for the property while maintaining it as part of the public parks system. The on-site kitchen will be completed for potential use in future projects.

Summer Concert Series
Lineup Announced

The City of Baytown is proud to announce the 2025 Summer Concert Series, including the headliners for Juneteenth, July Fourth, and much more. All of these events are organized by the City’s Parks and Recreation Department and are free to the public.

Watch the video announcement on the City of Baytown's Youtube page.

Party on the Peninsula

The fun begins with the Party on the Peninsula on March 22. Pug Johnson will be headlining the fun at Baytown’s Nature Center.

Dollar Taco Night

The Tiarras will be coming to play at Town Square as part of Dollar Taco Night on May 3.

These two events are just the beginning of the season.

Juneteenth

Cupid, the line dance king, is coming to play Juneteenth with Houston’s own Scarface on June 14 at Bicentennial Park.

Fourth of July

And finally, on July 4, Baytown is proud to welcome 80’s cover band, the Spazmatics, and headliner Ezra Ray Hart. The supergroup combines the lead singer talents from alternative rock bands Better than Ezra, Sugar Ray, and Tonic. The group will be belting out a combined 18 top ten singles and songs that have more than a billion streams. The night will end with the best fireworks show across the Texas gulf coast.

It will be a summer to remember. Again, all of these events are free to the public. For more information, please visit baytown.org/events.

BPD Officers Seize One Pound of Marijuana
During Traffic Stop in Crestmont

Notice From the Baytown Police Dept.

On March 7, 2025, officers conducted a traffic stop on a suspicious vehicle speeding through the Crestmont neighborhood. Upon investigation, they discovered approximately one pound of marijuana, taking more illegal drugs off our streets.
