Placeholder Image
Park Theatre Group members have yet to give a definite answer on a management agreement between the group and the city of McMinnville once Park Theatre restoration is complete.“As far as the endeavor to get a consensus out of the Park Theatre Group, I am not able to report there is a consensus from the group,” said Park Theatre Group member Steve Phillips on Friday. “The timeline given for me to meet with the other members was not permissible for that.”Phillips was asked during the Park Theatre Committee’s first meeting on Tuesday to discuss the matter and bring back a response on Friday.The Park Theatre Committee is a five-member group assigned to work on aspects of Park Theatre restoration and make recommendations to the city board. Members include chairman Jeff Golden, Park Theatre Group representatives Steve Phillips and David Marttala, and city board representatives Vice Mayor Everett Brock and Alderman Junior Medley.Under consideration is a recommendation by the committee that the city allow the group its choice of dates at the beginning of each year for events they have pre-arranged.
