A computer-generated design of an outdoor venue with a stage was offered by Brentwood City Councilwoman Pa’Tanisha Pierson as an option for an outdoor venue at the Vineyards at the Marsh Creek in Brentwood during a special council meeting on Tuesday, April 30, 2024. The area was orginally set for an amphitheater, but costs have skyocketed.
Originally envisioned in 2004 as the site of a regional event center, a 1,000-seat amphitheater and winery, the project was part of the Trilogy at Vineyards housing development plan. Subsequent development agreements over the years, though, have altered the plans into a smaller venue with no vineyards, according to Allen Baquillar, city director of engineering.
“This would allow a really nice activated space,” Muldur said. “And if it’s designed correctly, we’ll create a real inviting location where we can have food trucks come and we can have music, and we can have entertainment, and it’ll also be an area that I think will be received well.” “Regarding the proposed options for the vineyard at Marsh Creek Event Center, we believe it is not prudent to enter into a project that is not fully funded,” he said.
She also noted that the city’s arts fund could perhaps be used for the venue, and asked staff to look into the possibilities of moving dollars to the project. Councilman Tony Oerlemans said he liked Pierson’s option but wanted to be sure to include some kind of seating.
