Fair board approves new doors, exhaust fan and office air conditioner
Summary
The Butte Lawrence County Fair Board approved replacement doors for the open class building (~$2,000), an exhaust fan for the food stand (~$500) and purchase of an office air conditioner; all motions carried with movers and seconders recorded but without a roll-call tally in the minutes.
President Chad Mackaben opened the meeting and the board moved quickly into facilities business, approving several small capital purchases ahead of the 2026 fair.
Sharon Hoggatt reported estimates for replacement doors and installation in the open class building at "approximately $2,000." Chad Erk moved to approve replacing the doors and Ida Marie Snorteland seconded; the minutes record the motion as carried. Hoggatt also recommended installing an exhaust fan in the food stand to improve ventilation instead of adding additional screens; the estimated cost was "approximately $500." Tristan Clements moved to approve the exhaust fan and Snorteland seconded; the motion carried. Later the board approved purchasing a replacement air conditioner for the office after a motion by Clements and a second by Hoggatt.
The minutes record who moved and seconded each purchase and state each motion "carried," but they do not include a roll-call vote tally or further procurement details such as vendor selection or exact model specifications. The board indicated some items—like siding work—will be revisited after the fair.
