District news
Board moves to cancel its rodeo grounds lease with the Chamber of Commerce
What happened
The October 29, 2026 agenda includes Resolution 02-2026, which would rescind the board's July 15 approval of the rodeo and fairgrounds lease with the Del Norte Chamber of Commerce. The lease had been revised several times since March.
Why it matters to families
The rodeo grounds are district property used for community events and emergency staging, such as for forest fires. Reversing an approved lease changes who controls and pays for them. The reason is not given in the agenda.
The evidence
The October 29, 2026 agenda lists the rescission resolution; the July 15, 2026 minutes record the original approval.
