UPDATE!  While the Chisago County Planning Commission approved a modified version of the Sno-Baron's CUP request at their September 3 meeting, the county attorney ruled that the planning commission cannot modify a request - which meant that the Chisago County Commissioners had to approve or deny their request for 15 additional events each year with a maximum attendance of 3,500.

The County Board of Commissioners met on Wednesday, September 16 at 6:30 p.m. and unanimously denied the Sno-Barons request for additional events. 

 The Chisago County Board of Commissioners meet the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at the Chisago County Courthouse in Center City.  All meetings are all open to the public.
