Oakland Officials Will Vote Again On AEG-O.co Coliseum Talks

Oakland's Joint Powers Authority today will hold a special meeting at which the "public as well as competitors will have a second chance to weigh in on who receives the O.co Coliseum management contract." JPA Commissioners will then "redo the vote they took on April 20 to negotiate a contract" with AEG to run the complex that also includes Oracle Arena. This comes after SMG, whose 13-year tenure as venue operator would end, has protested the JPA's decision to deal with AEG (OAKLAND TRIBUNE, 5/8).
