Going Going Gone tent sale approved after council confirms paperwork and inspections
Summary
Council approved a 40-by-60 tent sale for Going Going Gone (Aug.–Sept. dates), subject to police, fire and building inspections; the store manager said insurance and overnight security are in place and that temporary lighting was removed from the plan.
Council approved Going Going Gone's temporary tent permit for a tent in the store parking lot, authorizing a 40-by-60 structure with dates discussed through early September, subject to inspections and submission of finalized landlord paperwork and insurance.
Colin Crosby, the store manager, told council the corporation's lease paperwork was still being finalized and that the store has insurance and both day and overnight security: "I'm Colin Crosby. I'm the store manager for, Going Going Gone." He said the store decided to remove temporary lighting from the tent for cost reasons and plans to place merchandise on tables and racks inside the tent. Council asked staff to verify the long-duration request complies with local ordinance and required inspections before the event opens to the public.
The motion to approve the permit passed by roll call with all members present voting in favor; the approval was recorded as subject to police, fire and building inspections and the submission of final paperwork.
