Board approves Co Square policy change and allows late request for mental‑health event
Summary
The board approved a revision to the Co Square event policy to allow some shorter notice requests and approved a late request for 'Canvas Within,' a gospel sip‑and‑paint mental health outreach event scheduled Aug. 28 (6–8 p.m.) with about 20–30 attendees and $15 tickets to cover supplies.
Staff asked the board to approve a use request for Co Square for an event titled "Canvas Within," a gospel sip‑and‑paint experience intended to promote mental health and faith on Aug. 28 from 6–8 p.m., estimating 20–30 attendees and $15 tickets to cover supplies. Staff noted the request was submitted on July 17 and fell outside the Co Square policy window requiring 1–2 months' notice, but said there were no operational concerns with hosting the event.
The board discussed updating the Co Square policy to provide greater flexibility for community events; Commissioners asked staff to review grant stipulations tied to the facility's creation. A motion to approve revisions to the Co Square policy and to permit the Canvas Within event passed by voice vote.
