Farm Swap market draws 26 vendors; board reminded funds must be deposited promptly
Summary
Organizers reported 26 vendors have signed up for the Farm Swap market; Erin said vendors should bring their own tables and that, by law, money received for the fair must be deposited within a few days — she also noted she had not prepared a report because she believed she could cover costs from proceeds.
Erin reported she has 26 vendors committed to the Farm Swap market and has distributed handouts to vendors; she instructed vendors to bring tables and tents and noted rental tables are available from the fair.
On finance, Erin said, "by law, money's received for the fair must be deposited within just a few days." She also said she had not prepared a report because she had been told she could take her costs out of proceeds, a practice that needs reconciliation with deposit rules. The minutes record that this legal requirement was raised but do not specify which law or the exact deposit timeframe.
Why it matters: vendor turnout indicates healthy market interest, but the board flagged a finance-procedure issue — prompt deposit rules — that organizers must follow to meet county or state requirements.
