A week after its grand opening, Nu Stadium, the home base of Inter Miami in Miami, Florida, received a temporary certificate of occupancy (TCO) from the city. This certificate permits the stadium to host events without a limited event permit, facilitating the upcoming match against the New York Red Bulls. City spokesperson Helena Poleo confirmed that the TCO was issued on Friday night, allowing the stadium to operate even as minor construction continues. Before receiving the TCO, the inaugural match proceeded under a limited event permit, which required extensive staffing for safety compliance. A total of 14 building-department staff and 13 fire inspectors were present, with costs exceeding $20,000 for their services. Inter Miami prepaid these costs, and the city will be reimbursed for fire-related expenses. The TCO enables the venue to function as a habitable space while awaiting a final occupancy permit.
