Public hearing held on Bel Air Armory fee changes; staff recommends $10 rental increase
Summary
Town staff presented a resolution proposing a $10 increase to Bel Air Armory rental rates (from $150 to $160) and a specific $160 six‑hour minimum rate for the Wednesday before Thanksgiving; staff recommended approval and the item will return under unfinished business.
At the meeting, staff presented a public hearing on a resolution to amend the Bel Air Armory fee schedule. The resolution, presented by Mr. Grama, proposed a $10 increase in business and individual lease rates for the Bel Air Armory — raising the base rental from $150 to $160 — and establishing a $160 six-hour minimum rate for the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
Mr. Grama told commissioners that staff recommends approval of the resolution following the public hearing. No public commentators or commissioners asked substantive follow-up questions during the hearing and Mr. Grama indicated he had nothing further to report.
Commissioners confirmed the matter will appear on the town’s unfinished-business agenda for a future meeting when members will consider final action. The fee change, if adopted, would affect renters of the Bel Air Armory, including community events such as the Bel Air Garden Mart that staff and commissioners discussed earlier in the meeting.
The town did not adopt the resolution at this session; staff recommended approval and the item will be scheduled for a future vote under unfinished business.
