"East Bay public officials plan to vote tomorrow on a proposal to begin the process of renewing a no-bid contract with a private firm that manages the Oakland Coliseum and the next-door Arena. The proposal to extend SMG&amp;#8217;s exclusive deal comes after strong criticism was leveled at how a recent U2 concert was handled and following an outside audit in 2008 of the Coliseum and Arena operations that criticized SMG for not booking more concerts and other events."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
