The Historic Triangle Recreational Facilities Authority was formed to oversee the construction and management of regional recreational facilities as part of the redevelopment of 160+ acres alongside the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center.

The Authority is tasked with leasing the property, procuring the construction and financing for projects, and managing the operations of a facility once it has been constructed.

As a regional partnership among the City of Williamsburg, James City County and York County, the Authority comprises six members, including the chief administrator and one additional staff member of each participating locality.
