Engineer warns board of permit risks for Greer County fairgrounds; no action taken
Summary
An engineer told the Greer County commissioners that a Fire Marshal permit for the fairgrounds carries risks if not addressed; he said transferring the permit to Pro-BEC was an option, but the board took no formal action.
Mark Barnes called the Greer County Board of Commissioners to order at 9:00 a.m. on June 29, 2026, and the board approved a motion to discuss the Fairgrounds Fire Marshal's Permit.
Assistant District Attorney Damon Cagle introduced engineer Gary Brickley, who explained how the Fairgrounds Fire Marshal's Permit had been obtained and outlined potential consequences if the county did not act promptly. Brickley described procedural steps and said transferring the permit to Pro-BEC had been discussed as an option. The minutes record that Brickley "discussed the permit, how it was attained, and what the potentials might be if not acted upon in a timely manner" and that he addressed the possibility of transfer to Pro-BEC; no transfer motion was made.
Commissioners did not take a formal vote or direct staff to execute a transfer at the June 29 meeting. The record shows no subsequent action, amendment, or assignment related to the permit in these minutes.
The Fairgrounds Fire Marshal's Permit topic was presented as part of the board's opening business; the commissioners moved on to other agenda items without adopting a resolution or authorization related to the permit. Further action would require a future agenda item and a formal motion recorded in the minutes.
