Commission approves fee waiver for Special Olympics meet-and-greet at fairgrounds
Summary
The Commission unanimously approved a fee waiver allowing the Special Olympics to use the Fine Arts Building for a two-hour meet-and-greet on July 23, 2026; presenters said 1,600 children in the county are eligible for the program.
Kayla Bingham and Matt Rowley appeared before the Commission requesting a fee waiver to use the Fine Arts Building at the Box Elder County Fairgrounds for a Special Olympics meet-and-greet scheduled July 23, 2026. Kayla described her role with the organization and said the program has not been functioning well; she told commissioners there are "1,600 children in our county that are eligible for the program." She and Rowley said they have liability insurance for the event.
Commissioner Lee Perry noted that a county policy for cost coverage is being developed and that future events may incur fees once policy is finalized. On a motion by Commissioner Perry, seconded by Commissioner Bingham, the Commission approved the fee waiver by unanimous roll-call vote (Vincent, Bingham, Perry — all Yea).
