.Coliseum May Renew No-Bid Deal with Management Firm

East Bay public officials plan to vote tomorrow on a proposal to begin the process of renewing a no-bid contract with a private firm that manages the Oakland Coliseum and the next-door Arena. The proposal to extend SMG’s exclusive deal comes after strong criticism was leveled at how a recent U2 concert was handled and following an outside audit in 2008 of the Coliseum and Arena operations that criticized SMG for not booking more concerts and other events.
