Commissioners approve continued use of temporary fair aide for 2026
Summary
Kittitas County commissioners approved continuing a temporary fair aide for the 2026 fair season, with staff asserting the role fits within current budget-policy processes and offers budget savings.
Kittitas County commissioners voted to continue the use of a temporary fair aide for 2026 during the April 27 Event Center study session. Event Center Director Kady Porterfield presented the staff report. Commissioner Laura Osiadacz said the proposal fits within current budget-policy processes and highlighted budget-saving benefits; she moved to approve and Vice-Chairman Brett Wachsmith seconded. The motion passed, recorded in the minutes as "Motion passes."
The minutes do not specify the fair aide's pay rate, hours, or the exact budget line that will cover the position; Porterfield referenced the item as consistent with existing budget policies. The session did not include a recorded roll-call vote or further direction on staffing implementation.
