Potential operators — a list that will include the Springfield Performing Arts Development Corp. which now runs the Symphony Hall as well as CityStage — have until 2 p.m. Tuesday to get their proposals in to City Hall. The winner will operate Symphony Hall until the end of 2018, months after the opening of a $950-million casino in downtown Springfield in fall 2018, according to documents on file with the city and reproduced below. The process doesn't obligate the city to take a the high bidder but to evaluate each proposal on its own merit. |
