Miramar commissioners voted 4-1 Wednesday night to renew the city’s amphitheater concession contract with a company whose owner was identified in federal court records as an alleged co-conspirator in a multimillion-dollar fraud scheme involving the Jackson Health Foundation.

The renewal comes months after Miami federal prosecutors identified Darryl Holsendolph in court papers as a co-conspirator in the criminal case against former Jackson Health Foundation Chief Operating Officer Charmaine Gatlin. Holsendolph has not been charged with a crime.

Commissioners approved a one-year contract extension with Holsen Inc. to continue exclusively providing food and drinks at the city-owned amphitheater beginning in August.
