Amid Budget Cuts, Jeffco Fairgrounds Could Close
If county commissioners find it's not possible for the fairgrounds to be self-sustaining, they could choose to close it.
JEFFERSON COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4) – The Jefferson County Fairgrounds could be on the chopping block, as county leaders continue their efforts to save money amid major budget cuts. On Tuesday night, the Jefferson County Fairgrounds Advisory Committee will hold a meeting with the county manager to discuss the future of the fairgrounds.
The main topic will be the possibility of moving the Jefferson County Fairgrounds to an enterprise fund, which would “remove the fairgrounds from the county’s General Fund and require it to become a self-sustaining operation,” a county spokesperson said.
