Pinellas County Commission votes in favor of its share of financing for new Rays ballpark.

The county vote was 5 -2 for bonds that would be funded by tourist or "bed" taxes.

Under the agreement, the city and county would put up about half the cost, with the Rays covering the rest.

The proposed stadium is a signature piece of a broader $6.5 billion revitalization project.
