Summary

A caller asked the commission for permission to hold a plein-air (open-air painting) event on the courthouse lawn in June or July; commissioners asked staff to follow up and put a date on the calendar once provided.

A resident called the Henry County Commission during the April 2 meeting to request use of the courthouse lawn for a plein-air art event in June or July.

The caller described the plan as a painting event in which artists would "sit around on the courthouse lawn and paint." Presiding Commissioner Jim Stone and County Clerk Kelly Marriott said staff would check for scheduling conflicts (July events could pose a problem), put the request on the calendar, and follow up with the organizer once a specific date is chosen.

No formal permit or fee decisions were made at the meeting; commissioners instructed staff to follow up with the caller and to advise on availability.
