From the meeting
The October 21, 2026 staff report said the City of Ionia Fire Fair Board supported transitioning oversight of the city fireworks display to the Fair Board. The city offered a $2,000 first-year contribution, and the DDA and Ionia Theatre would help with vendor outreach, basic coordination, and sound support. Further discussion was still needed to finalize responsibilities and logistics, so the work remains open and transition-related.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
