Organizers outline air show plans; board approves parking fee collection arrangement
Summary
Organizers reported logistics for the upcoming air spectacular — food trucks, sponsorships, a children's zone — and the board noted a $5 per-car parking charge to be collected by Bailey Parking (company to receive 10% of collections).
Event organizers updated the board on preparations for the upcoming air spectacular: they have vendors/food trucks in place, are still finalizing sponsorships, and plan to create a children's activity zone. The organizers said the show is roughly 70 days out.
The board heard that Bailey Parking will collect a $5 parking fee per car and will retain a 10% collection fee. Staff noted last year’s event parked roughly 2,600 vehicles; organizers cautioned that charging for parking may reduce attendance but will help fund future air shows.
Organizers and staff said they will continue to work on sponsorships, vendor coordination, crowd amenities and safety planning in the weeks ahead.
