City leaders decide what’s next
SUMMARY: The Columbus City Council is deciding priorities for the Terry Brown Amphitheater after receiving $1 million from the state legislature. Initially set to open in 2017, the project still needs permanent seating, restrooms, and concession stands, with a total cost of around $2.5 million. An additional $500,000 is required for a parking lot. City Engineer Kevin Stafford suggested forming a committee to determine immediate funding needs while awaiting additional funds. Although the facility can host concerts now, some arrangements are necessary for the incomplete infrastructure. More updates can be followed on Facebook and X.
