VII.CPermission from the Lee County Library to allow alcohol sales during the Pop Con Event in August The Lee County Library is hosting its annual Pop Con event on August 21, 2021 from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. As a part of the event, there will be special guest speakers, demonstrations and vendor tables set up. Two vendors have requested to sell sealed alcohol at the event. They have requested to offer samples of beer and mead since they offer various options. Lee County's code of ordinances does not have a general prohibition against the consumption or sale of alcohol on county property. The Parks and Recreation Ordinance does specifically prohibit the consumption and sale of alcohol in the park property. The vendors will be required to obtain the necessary North Carolina Alcohol Beverage permit for the one day event. However, Lee County, as the owner of the property, must submit an application for a temporary use permit to the Planning/Zoning Department. Library Director Beth List requested the Board's consideration to allow the sale of alcohol. Dr. Crumpton stated that the County is covered from a host insurance standpoint, however the vendors will be required to have insurance to cover liability related to serving and selling alcohol. This request initiated from a request from the Sanford Spinners to serve alcohol, which was not considered this year due to games at Tramway Park and nearby Southern Lee High School. The board discussed allowing the vendors to provide samples. Commissioner Carver recommended no consumption of alcohol on site.
