Adel Partners asks supervisors to approve festival parking, use of courthouse lawn and sheltering for Aug. 8 Sweet Corn Festival
Summary
Erin Milroy of Adel Partners requested county permission to use courthouse lawn for kids' inflatables, parking locations for vendors, and the admin building as an emergency shelter during the Aug. 8 Sweet Corn Festival; the request was submitted by email and placed on the meeting packet for board consideration.
Adel Partners submitted a written request to the Dallas County Board asking for permission to use county property and support services for the Adel Sweet Corn Festival on Saturday, Aug. 8.
In an email included in the packet, Erin Milroy, identified as President of Adel Partners, asked that the county designate three parking areas for festival vendors (the courthouse-adjacent lot behind the election offices at Court & 9th, the lot at 9th & Main east of the courthouse, and the former WF parking lot). The email also requested use of the courthouse lawn on the north side for two inflatables for a 'Kids Zone' and permission to hold a corn-eating contest on parking spots in front of the administration building around noon.
Milroy asked that the county list the Dallas County Administration building as an alternate shelter location for the event in case of severe weather and requested that the item be placed on the June 30 or July 7 agenda so a representative could attend.
The packet records the request as correspondence; the provided transcript excerpt does not include a recorded motion or a vote approving or denying the request. The email included contact details for follow-up.
