HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Kansas State Fair board on Tuesday set the time and place for the meeting in November to discuss the future of the half mile oval at the Kansas State Fairgrounds.
The board voted unanimously to hold its regular meeting on Tuesday, November 14 beginning at 2:30 p.m. and conduct the rest of the business between 2:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. and then begin the public session regarding the racetrack at 5:00 p.m. at Dillon Hall in the Encampment Building.
They will begin that portion of the meeting by going over whatever proposals they have received at that point. Formal proposals for saving the racetrack must be provided to the Fair Board in writing by Oct. 31. As of Tuesday's meeting, they had not received any proposals that would qualify.
Following the presentation of any formal proposals, public comment will last for an hour. Each individual will be limited to 10 minutes of comments and must sign in before the meeting.
