The purpose of this was to allow for the customer <br />convenience of purchasing tickets ahead of the event online, so they <br />don’t have to stand in line at the gate to buy a ticket. <br /> <br /> The ticketing service company charges a fee per ticket as the cost for <br />using their ticketing system. These ticket charges are passed on to the <br />customer when purchasing their ticket as standard industry practice to <br />offset the cost of the service. This resolution will formalize that process <br />as standard policy that the ticketing fee is a pass-through fee from the <br />ticketing company. <br /> <br />INTERACTION: Board of County Commissioners <br />Kittitas Valley Event Center <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the BOCC Approve a Resolution to Allow KVEC to <br />Charge Ticketing Fees <br /> <br />HANDLING: 1 Original – Clerk of the Board <br /> 1 Copy – Event Center Director <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: Resolution <br /> <br />LEAD STAFF: Kady Porterfield, Director Kittitas Valley Event Center <br />
