Council adopts vendor fee schedule for city events and waives yard sale permit fees for June
Summary
Council approved an ordinance (first/second reading as applicable) establishing vendor application fees for city-sponsored events (food vendors $50; craft and other vendors $25) and set June 6–8 as citywide yard sale dates while waiving yard sale permit fees.
The South Lebanon City Council on May 1 approved a vendor application fee schedule for city-sponsored special events and set citywide yard sale dates in June while waiving the usual yard-sale permit fees.
Under the newly adopted schedule, the council recorded a $50 application fee for food vendors and a $25 fee for craft and other vendors. Council discussion included a short exchange clarifying that the fee is intended to provide an application and vetting mechanism for event vendors; one council member said it "gives you the opportunity to vet any vendors that come in." The motion to approve the vendor-fee schedule passed; recorded votes show one dissenting vote during a related motion (see actions below).
Separately, the council set June 6–8 as citywide yard sale dates and waived yard sale permit fees for those dates. Mayor Burke noted that the city usually schedules the weekend and clarified the correct dates after a brief exchange.
The transcript does not specify whether vendors will be charged additional licensing or health-inspection fees beyond the application fee; staff would handle event vetting and any necessary permits under existing city procedures.
