Kendall County Fair Association failed to secure permits necessary before constructing a new bleacher seating area — work that continued up to the day before the event -- that collapsed last Saturday.
A release issued Thursday by the city of Boerne tells of the lack of permitting for the reassembled bleacher section, which collapsed Aug. 31 injuring 12 people, one who remains in critical condition.
The city is contracting with an independent structural engineer to evaluate the collapsed structure and provide a report regarding the failed bleacher structure, an inspection scheduled to be completed next week. That report will be made available to the city within the next three weeks.
