Commissioners discuss event permits and reaffirm no-alcohol policy at fairgrounds
Summary
Representatives requested a malt beverage permit for a March racing event and asked about tourism funding; Sheriff Shane Johnson raised a planned music event and the board confirmed county policy prohibits alcohol at the Fairgrounds.
At the Feb. 15 meeting, Tomi White and Chris Allred asked the board about obtaining a malt beverage permit for the All American Chariot & Worlds Racing event scheduled March 19-20 and inquired whether the tourism board might provide funding for the event. Chairman King suggested the organizers contact the Town of Afton Tourism Board and apply to the Lincoln County Economic Development Committee for possible support.
County Sheriff Shane Johnson reported being contacted about a music event proposed for the Fairgrounds in June that "might include alcohol." The commissioners confirmed that county policy is no alcohol on the Fairgrounds.
The transcript records these items as requests and policy confirmation; it does not record a formal permit approval or a funding commitment by the tourism board or county.
