For the second year, the Sierra Arts Foundation is running what's called Murals, Music & Margaritas. The core of the festival (with the music and margaritas) is happening in the block diagonally opposite of the East Lot. And this has caused a problem.

The stretch of street has been blockaded and as of this morning, a stage was being erected and vendors was moving in. That wasn't a problem. Having them parking on the street along the three sides of the lot is also not a problem, as it's a public street and there's an easement for parking. What was a problem was people starting to drive across the lot, despite some piles of stuff we've left to try and discourage it.

This hasn't stopped people from going into the lot to smoke, which bothers us because we don't want people starting a fire, even though there is a North Lyon County fire truck parked at the festival.

I suppose some people will think we're being grouches, but I don't think we can allow people to cut through our land. Besides liability issues, I have to be concerned about accidentally creating an easement through the lot. So barricades and signs will continue. And if I see any more smokers, I will go out and try to shoo them off if I can.
