Committee debates craft vs. concession classification as vendor applications climb
Summary
Organizers reported 18 paid booths and discussed whether homemade-food sellers should be charged craft or concession fees; committee members agreed craft booths typically close earlier and recommended clearer booth categorization.
Committee members reviewed the current vendor roster and raised questions about how to classify sellers of homemade food. Committee member (S10) told the group that "We have about 18 booths that are completed applications and paid for," and several members said craft fees differ from concession fees because concession vendors stay later for fireworks.
The committee debated space requests, with at least one vendor asking for a larger 20x30 footprint instead of the standard 12x15. Staff member (S5) said organizers would check applications for requested sizes and make placements accordingly. The committee also asked staff to verify deposits and follow up with applicants who had not returned payments.
