Background Information

The Gila County Rodeo Committee has submitted a request to use the Gila County Fairgrounds' facilities (with a waiver of fees) for the following events:

May 7, 8, 9 2015 - Rodeo Arena for the Copper Dust Stampede Rodeo
May 7, 2015 - Exhibit Hall for the Sponsors' Dinner

Evaluation

The Copper Dust Stampede Rodeo provides fun for the family and is beneficial to the economy of the community.

Conclusion

In past years, the Board of Supervisors has waived the fees and allowed the Gila County Rodeo Committee to use the Fairgrounds Exhibit Hall and rodeo arena for the annual Gila County Rodeo.

There is no conflict with dates; insurance certificates will be provided for events and security will be arranged with Detective Johnny Holmes of the Gila County Sheriff's Office.

Recommendation

Public Works staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors waive the fees and allows the Gila County Rodeo Committee to use the Fairgrounds Exhibit Hall and rodeo arena for their annual rodeo event.

Suggested Motion

Approval of the Gila County Rodeo Committee's request to use the Fairgrounds' Rodeo Arena for the Copper Dust Stampede Rodeo on May 7-9, 2015, and the Exhibit Hall on May 7, 2015, for the Sponsors' Dinner, with a waiver of fees.
