Commission approves temporary Main Street closure for 20th‑anniversary consignment celebration
Summary
The commission approved a street closure on Main Street for a consignment store’s 20th‑anniversary celebration on July 11, 2026; the event will run 9 a.m.–2 p.m. with food trucks and vendors and requires city permits and use of Parks Department services.
The Chanute City Commission voted June 22 to approve a temporary closure of portions of Main Street on July 11, 2026, to allow a 20‑year consignment anniversary event featuring vendors and food trucks.
The agenda described the request as a street closure from approximately 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with the celebration planned from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., vendor licensing required and use of city barricades and available electrical hookups for food trucks. The agenda named the applicant as Amy Sehorn, owner of Little Consignment; the applicant (speaker 6) told the commission she had spoken with neighboring Main Street businesses and was coordinating vendor placements. Staff advised that vendors must obtain proper city licensing and that the Parks Department would coordinate trash cans and tables and collect associated fees.
The motion to approve the request passed by voice vote (ayes). The applicant asked whether she must submit a vendor list; staff directed her to work with Community Development to obtain permits and licensing.
