Board eliminates weekly parking pass, approves daily spectator passes with cap
Summary
The Fair Board voted to eliminate the weekly parking pass and sell daily spectator passes with a 170-vehicle cap (minus sponsor reservations), approving an amended daily price of $40 per day; the board discussed prior revenue estimates based on a $50/day scenario.
The Teton County Fair Board voted to eliminate weekly parking passes and move to daily-only parking for spectator vehicles, setting an amended price of $40 per day and a cap of 170 spectator vehicles per day (minus sponsor-reserved spaces). Britney moved to recommend eliminating the weekly pass and selling daily passes; Meredith seconded and the amended motion passed 5–2.
Board materials recorded an earlier projection for a $50/day scenario that would have generated about $6,650 per day and $19,950 across Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday, exceeding the current parking budget of $12,000 after reserving 37 sponsor spaces (133 available for sale). The board did not recalculate revenue in the minutes after adopting the amended $40/day figure. Vote on the amendment: yes — Amy, Elaine, Meredith, Mikey, Britney; no — Hannah and Marybeth.
