Sherburne County, Fairboard Discussion <br /> <br />Page 19 <br /> <br />Mayor K1/nzing stated that the Agricultural Society moved to approve that the Sherburne <br />County Fair be moved from Elk River to Becker. She stated that she received many <br />complaints about the city squeezing the Fair out of its current location. She wanted to make <br />it clear that the city has been working with the County and the Fairboard to try and keep the <br />Fair in Elk River. <br /> <br />Councilmember Tveite stated that if the Fair does decide to move, it xvouldn't happen soon. <br />He stated that the Fair would lose business and money if it moved out to Becket. He stated <br />that the move would depend on how much funding Sherburne County would put into the <br />Fair. <br /> <br />The Council concurred that they would like a letter sent to the Sherburne County Fairboard, <br />the Agricultural Society, and Sherbume County Board stating the desire of the City of Elk <br />River to keep the Sherburne County Fair in Elk River. <br /> <br />8.
