Stadium officials ask for event-scheduling deal before upcoming Sodo arena vote

The Washington State Public Stadium Authority (PSA) sent a letter Monday that requests that Chris Hansen reach an event scheduling agreement before vacating the street for a proposed sports arena in Sodo District.

The public body overseeing CenturyLink Field is demanding that the city force entrepreneur Chris Hansen to reach an event scheduling agreement with it before granting him a street to build a proposed Sodo District arena.

A Seattle City Council vote on giving Hansen part of Occidental Avenue South is scheduled for late April or early May. In a letter to the council Monday, the Washington State Public Stadium Authority (PSA) said there has been no attempt by Hansen to address scheduling protocols enabling the arena to function alongside CenturyLink and Safeco fields.
