Opportunities for the Mississippi Fair Commission: a Blueprint for the Future
#527 Joint Legislative Committee on Performance Evaluation and Expenditure Review (PEER) Report to the Mississippi Legislature Opportunities for the Mississippi Fair Commission: A Blueprint for the Future The Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce, acting in his capacity as chair of the Mississippi Fair Commission, requested that PEER review the commission’s management of state-owned facilities and offer a strategy for strengthening those facilities’ revenue- producing capabilities. He noted that the environment in which the Fair Commission attempts to attract events has become more competitive within the last decade, with similar types of facilities that are newer and equipped with more advanced technology. In making his request, the Commissioner also noted that the Fair Commission is a 100% special fund agency--i. e., it generates its own funding and receives no general funds from the Legislature for day-to-day operations. The Fair Commission’s assets include five major revenue-producing facilities that generate revenue primarily through rental fees and concession sales. The remaining facilities are support facilities necessary to produce events at the major facilities as well as support the State Fair and Dixie National Rodeo. While the Mississippi Fair Commission routinely hosts events that support its statutory mission, the majority of the revenue- producing events held on the fairgrounds complex do not directly support its statutory mission. The commission primarily relies on repeat business from promoters and its controls over contractual employees are insufficient to safeguard its revenues. For fiscal years 2007 through 2009, the Fair Commission had event-days on which the commission’s facilities were not in use--i. -
