DATE: November 4, 2009
RE: Lights of the Ozarks management
City Staff has requested that the City formalize the working relationship they
have established with the A & P Commission and Fayetteville Town Center staff to
manage the vendors on the Square during lights of the Ozarks. Accordingly, I
drafted an ordinance to enact a new code section in the Fayetteville Code that is
very similar to 114.02 Farmers' Market.
This proposed new section 117 .93 Lights of the Ozarks would empower
the A & P Commission and Fayetteville Town Center staff to manage the vendors
in the same areas (plus the Town Center Plaza) as where the Farmers' Market
manages its vendors. This would be during the period after the end of the Farmers'
Market through January 1 .
Please review this proposed ordinance and let me know of any changes
needed. This should go on the agenda for the November 17th meeting to be
effective for this year' s Lights of the Ozarks.
