County approves two special‑event permits, waives fee for Alyssa’s Ride
Summary
The board approved Bike Race SE2026-01 for April 25 and Alyssa’s Ride SE2026-02 for June 13, 2026, waiving the $100 application fee for Alyssa’s Ride and noting roads are used 'as is' at participants' own risk.
Community Development Director Stephan Metzger presented two special-event permit requests on March 30, 2026. The board approved Bike Race SE2026-01, scheduled for April 25, and approved the 9th Annual Alyssa’s Ride, SE2026-02, scheduled for June 13 at Easton City Park. The board voted to waive the $100 application fee for Alyssa’s Ride and directed that the permit language note roadways are used ‘as is’ and that participants assume the risk of travel on county roads. County Counselor Josh Ney recommended that language be included in the permit.
Both motions passed with unanimous consent. The minutes record event dates, start and end times for each permit, and the location for Alyssa’s Ride as Easton City Park, 31373 231st Street, Easton, KS. The county did not record additional operational details such as required barricades, traffic control plans, or insurance certification in the minutes; those items are typically handled through the special-event permit process and may appear in the permit file.
