It says $15 million of that was spent in the quarter that ended on March 31.
The committee says only the Pan Am shooting centre in Cookstown and the Toronto track and field centre at York University remain to be completed, with 49 days to go before the international competition.
An event to mark the completion of the Hamilton soccer stadium is set for this afternoon.
TO2015 says operating expenses for the quarter were $128.9 million, spent largely on overlay, technology, sports operations, event and ceremonies, transportation and logistics.
