City officials appear to be soliciting proposals for a $6 million upgrade to the Fishers downtown amphitheater.  According to a story published in the June 28th edition of the Indianapolis Star, written by reporter John Tuohy, the proposal would expand the stage and add more restrooms.

City Councilwoman Selina Stoller is quoted in the story, saying the council will need to consider the cost of the project before approving the funds.

The amphitheater, adjacent to City Hall, has drawn large crowds lately, including Tuesday night’s concert with the Doo Band.  The July 7th concert scheduled with Loverboy is expected to draw about 7,000 people.  The concert if free, but tickets are distributed to control the size of the crowd.

Mayor Scott Fadness told LarryInFishers Wednesday morning that more details on the plans will be released once a developer is selected by the city.
