St. Joseph County commissioners have approved a request to use courthouse property for a local, community festival.
During their board meeting Tuesday, the five-member commission OK’d a request from Covered Bridge Days officials. Festival organizers asked to use the courthouse property for the two-day event, which would begin July 9.
Commissioners indicated they hope the festival will go on as planned after the 2020 festival was canceled.
In other business, commissioners on Tuesday approved annual reports from drain commissioner Jeff Wenzel, Central Dispatch Director Dennis Brandenburg and soon-to-retire Friend of the Court, William Thistlethwaite.
