It's still "a monthly fair in northeast Portland" where people are charged $120 to set up stands. It's not fair for her not to pay and take their profits. If she was allowed then you'd have the people that plopped down money saying "America has gone to shit" also...

If other people have to pay to set up stands then she should have to as well. But I didn't see that anywhere in the article.

The concern here was about public health as it was the health inspector who gave her a rough time, not a revenue inspector. In terms of health, this is no different than any other kid's lemonade stand. It shouldn't matter in terms of health whether it's at a large neighborhood event or a stand by itself which is usually allowed to be given a pass.

"The cost of a temporary license for a stand? A chilling $120."

That was the general charge for a stand. It didn't say others in the area were also being charged that amount.

I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be...

Either way, the story has a happy ending cause this little girl will be getting a ton of pity visits for lemonade and is going to make more money than she would have if they let her stay.

It did seem like a set up. Besides if you had ghost why would you ever admit to liking that "California Girls" song under your regular profile? LOL just giving you a hard time.

I see in other articles that there were other places offering food stands. However, they were putting in a much bigger volume.

I take back my statement that she should pay $120 if other people have to. She wasn't going to make more than $50 - $75. That wouldn't be fair to her to charge that much.

But she got an apology from the county manager so they admitted that they were wrong.

For the record Carolina Kid's IP used in this thread has no other user names attached to it in our Data Base of over 60,000 user names. There is no evidence that points to him using a ghost in this thread. The IP is from North Carolina and not a proxy.

•carolinakid 24.16x.xxx.xxx

Thank you, wilheim

McCrash and TruGuru are both posting from three time zones away from CK. None of the IPs involved are proxies.
