Representatives from OSU Extension, the Fair Board and county staff discussed the Administration Building Project for the fairgrounds. The Fair Board voted to proceed with WDC Group for design services; the Agriculture Society indicated it would cover funding needs beyond the $1.1 million the commissioners have agreed to provide. The group reviewed a tentative milestone schedule with a proposed completion date of February 2028 and discussed potential building location and access to utilities.
