The Haywood County Commissioners suspended payments to the fairgrounds as a budget cutting measure last year. Now, the fairgrounds doesn’t have enough money to pay off its loans. The commissioners didn’t think they could afford to take another $40,000 out of their budget to help. However, they think the federal government can find enough money in its $12+ trillion deficit to avail a USDA loan for the facility. The loan would lower payments and avail funds for upgrading the facility.
