Commission approves fee waiver for Special Olympics meet‑and‑greet at fairgrounds
Summary
Volunteers asked the commission to waive rental fees for the Fine Arts Building for a Special Olympics meet‑and‑greet July 23; commissioners approved the fee waiver unanimously and noted a county policy on fee waivers is being developed.
Kayla Bingham and Matt Rowley asked the commissioners for a fee waiver to use the Fine Arts Building at the Box Elder County Fairgrounds for a Special Olympics meet‑and‑greet planned for July 23, 2026. Kayla Bingham described her involvement with the organization and said the county program has about 1,600 eligible children. The organizers said they carry liability insurance and asked to use the building for two hours.
Commissioner Lee Perry said the county is developing a formal policy on covering such costs and that future events may be charged if the policy requires it. Commissioner Perry moved to approve the fee waiver; Commissioner Bingham seconded and the motion passed unanimously on roll call.
