Invoice from Live Nation for season tickets at a reserved table at the Riverfront Park Amphitheater (a.k.a. the Live Nation Pavilion, formerly the North Waterfront Park).
Tuesday night, the Wilmington City Council discussed the purchase of $14,000 worth of VIP seats at the Live Nation venue in Riverfront Park -- and scolded the press for criticizing the policy ahead of the council meeting.
When the city council agenda became available Friday afternoon, reporters at several outlets noticed two different items.
First -- the city was set to spend $14,000 on a VIP table at its own park. And second -- the policy for the use of those tickets explicitly gives city council members first dibs. They also limited ticket use to community and economic development, as well as employee recognition.
