Summary
Community development director Rebecca Everett told commissioners there is a 3:00 p.m. land-use hearing and that county fair attendance hit an estimated 27,000 on one day; staff expected consent agenda items to remain on consent at the afternoon hearing.
Rebecca Everett, community development director for Larimer County, told the Board of County Commissioners on Aug. 11 that the department expected a 3:00 p.m. land-use hearing and did not anticipate items being pulled from the consent agenda.
Everett also provided an update on the Larimer County Fair and Rodeo, reporting that staff counted about 27,000 people through the gates on Sunday, a single-day attendance figure staff said exceeded a typical day of about 20,000–21,000. Everett said final financial and sales numbers from the fair were still being tallied.
Commissioners thanked fair staff and volunteers; Commissioner Joey Shand McNally and others praised event staff, volunteers and partner organizations for crowd management and positive community participation. Everett said she would return with final numbers when they were available.
The land-use items on the afternoon agenda were expected to remain on consent but could change if a member of the public asked that an item be pulled.
