City officials had earlier said they were targeting a July 1 Fraze season start. Schwieterman told city council the season is expected to end in early September.
The council Tuesday night approved a series of resolutions approving the budgeted spending of about $3.8 million for this Fraze season. The city is recruiting for seasonal jobs.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine earlier this month amended an order to allow outdoor entertainment venues to admit up to 30% of their fixed, seated capacity.
The measures “will allow us when necessary to make decisions on the implementation of the Fraze Pavilion plan for 2021,” Schwieterman said.
The 2020 season at the city-owned 4,300-seat outdoor entertainment venue was canceled, as were other popular Kettering summer activities, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
