Summary

As part of the consent agenda the Board approved special-event permits and amended the National Night Out road-closure permit to remove evening fireworks closures after the fireworks display was canceled due to dry weather.

During consent-agenda consideration the Board reviewed multiple special-event permits, including National Night Out. Supervisor H. Joseph Easter noted the draft permit omitted required evening closures tied to a planned fireworks display; Austin Mitchell said the draft likely mirrored the prior year's permit and could be updated. A member of the public informed the Board that the fireworks display had been canceled due to dry weather conditions, and Supervisor Benjamin Morris amended his motion to approve the permit with those adjustments. The Board approved the amended permit unanimously.

The consent agenda also included approvals for the Amelia Lavender Festival, Country Southern Soul Fish Fry & Car Show, and the Amelia 5K road-closure permit.
