Commission approves indemnification agreements for fair vendors
Summary
The board approved hold‑harmless agreements for two vendors to operate within a defined fair boundary; commissioners clarified that public drinking would be confined to the designated fenced area and not permitted to roam across the fairgrounds.
The commission reviewed indemnification and hold‑harmless agreements for vendors operating at the county fair, including an agreement with Andrea de Jesus doing business as A and H Farms and an agreement with a brewing company. Staff explained the agreements define a confined licensed area between Pachteroff Hall and the adjacent arena and do not authorize open‑consumption across the fairgrounds.
Commissioners asked clarifying questions about the licensed boundaries and how they interact with city activities near the baseball fields; staff said the license applies only within a defined boundary and that fair‑time beverage service will remain confined to the approved area. The board moved and approved the agreements on the record.
