The Provo City Council is at least two weeks away from voting on a proposed 20,000-seat outdoor music venue near the mouth of Provo Canyon — so the public still has a chance to weigh in.

Right now, the council is taking feedback on the Vesper amphitheater proposal through its email address, council@provo.gov.

The council hasn’t decided whether it will take in-person public comment when it next discusses Vesper on Sept. 8. That meeting is the earliest opportunity the council has to vote on approving the amphitheater plan.

The amphitheater plan was proposed in May by David Osmond, a member of Utah’s famed Osmond family. The amphitheater, if completed, could be home to major concerts and other live events, with a seating capacity equal to that of the Delta Center in downtown Salt Lake City.

On Tuesday, Provo City Council members met with Vesper’s developer, peppering the company with questions and possible amendments to a proposed development agreement. And council members said they have already heard from constituents about the plan.

Council member Becky Bogdin said that “some of the people that I’ve talked to, they’re really concerned about the parking garage.” She said she favors Vesper’s current concept, where the garage “blends in and that it’s set back”

Council member Craig Christensen said he prefers an underground garage that would “preserve the aesthetics” of the mountains surrounding the canyon.

Bogdin disagreed with Bryan Bayles, Vesper’s project manager, over Bayles’ contention that the amphitheater needs electronic signs to advertise the shows playing there.

“We have to have the ability to put that up there,” Bayles said.

Bogdin said she was “not supportive” of the signs and that it would be difficult to regulate. “It’s a huge enforcement problem,” she said.

Council members also discussed how the venue would dampen sound emanating from the stage and audience, and whether the amphitheater would be exempt from some city ordinances.

One issue that remains unresolved is how the city would help pay for the amphitheater. Council members discussed whether to amend the original development agreement that would help Vesper pay for infrastructure and other improvements by means of ”public financing mechanisms”

The council talked about including a clause listing different ways the developer could request funding.

One method discussed was to create a Public Infrastructure Districts, or PID, a limited-purpose government entity. PIDs can pay for such infrastructure as streets, utilities and parks — but they are sometimes criticized for the way they can accumulate bond debt and that they sometimes bypass public scrutiny.

The council ended Tuesday’s meeting by postponing discussion of a purchase agreement that would allow Vesper to buy parcels in Provo Canyon near the amphitheater site. That will be discussed at the council’s next meeting, on Sept. 8.
