Chairman Bosch convened the adjourned session of the Lyon County Board of Supervisors with Modder and Michael present. Supervisors Block and Koedam were absent.

Alvin Smidstra and Wilmer DeRoo met with Supervisors representing the Lyon County Fair Association. Smidstra presented the Fair Board budget with previous years actual numbers and 2010 budget year numbers. DeRoo and Smidstra explained the stairs leading into the grandstand need to be replaced. Chairman Bosch asked if drainage problems on the grounds are a problem and Smidstra said they cap the inlets all year and open them during the fair week and that has corrected the problem. Smidstra said we are requesting $16,000.00, which is the same as last year. We realize the fair would not happen without your support and we want to thank you. Chairman Bosch thanked Alvin and Wilmer for coming to the Board meeting.
