LD 932 Maine House · 132nd Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act To Require The Issuance Of Maine Agricultural Fair Licenses Every 4 Years

LD 932 changes Maine's agricultural fair licensing rules by extending the license term from 3 years to 4 years. This bill directly affects organizers of agricultural fairs who must obtain state licenses to operate. The key provision updates the statute to require licenses to be issued for four consecutive years instead of three, while maintaining existing requirements for fair dates and annual premium spending. The change simplifies the licensing process for fair organizers by reducing how often they need to apply for a new license.
