Deal lets Bengals manage stadium
By
The Cincinnati Enquirer
Hamilton County and Cincinnati Bengals officials have an agreement that will allow the team to manage the daily operations at Paul Brown Stadium.
The Bengals' company, Paul Brown Stadium Ltd., has agreed to publicly bid all goods or services purchased for stadium management — such as painting, groundskeeping and security.
The lease signed by the team in 1997 said Paul Brown Stadium Ltd. “shall” manage the stadium. But when the Bengals balked at being subject to the public bidding process, the county requested proposals from other companies interested in managing the $450 million facility.
The Bengals sued, and settlement talks began.
Under the agreement Thursday, the Bengals will go through the public bidding process for new hires and when buying goods and services. Sixteen employees already hired by the team will be absorbed as county employees, subject to county pay scale and performance evaluations.
