Portland delays decision on renewing successful music festival contract despite revenue and community support.
The Portland City Council has delayed voting on renewing the Back Cove Music and Arts Festival contract, despite its successful debut and $185,000 in revenue for park improvements.
Mayor Mark Dion criticized the delay, calling it counterproductive and discouraging to organizers, urging councilors to direct feedback to staff instead of stalling negotiations.
The festival, which celebrated Acadian culture and drew large crowds without neighborhood issues, remains uncertain for next summer.
A final proposal is expected soon, but no decision has been made.
