Summary

The commission approved appointments to the fair board and moved to adopt the fair board’s property/land-use agreement; commissioners asked staff to resolve insurance listing for carnival rides before the next annual review.

The board moved and approved appointments to the fair board and separately voted to adopt the Fair Board’s property and land-use agreement as presented.

Commissioners and staff discussed whether carnival rides and removable midway equipment should be listed as county-owned assets for insurance purposes. Staff said they had sent three insurance applications and would obtain quotes from KCAMP and national event-insurance carriers; commissioners requested comparative quotes for both ownership scenarios (county-owned versus vendor-owned) before finalizing language in the agreement.

The motions passed by voice vote. The commission also instructed staff to circulate an updated agreement for signatures with the new review date for 2026.
