Henderson buys two 20'x20' event tents for $5,994 to reduce festival rental costs
Summary
Mayor Bell proposed and the board approved purchasing two 20'x20' event tents from Tentandtable.com for $5,994.40, with a stipulation that only city employees will set up and take down the tents.
The board approved purchasing two 20-by-20-foot event tents from Tentandtable.com for $5,994.40 to reduce rental costs for city events such as the BBQ Festival. Mayor Terry F. Bell told aldermen the chamber typically rents tents for around $800 each for the festival and the city often participates in events where tenting is needed.
Alderman Donna R. Butler moved to approve the purchase and to allow only city employees to perform setup and takedown; Alderman Buel Maness seconded and the motion carried. The minutes state Recorder Garland will research adding the city logo to the tents; no vendor lead times or maintenance plans were recorded.
