Contract addresses drugs, obscenity at Street Scene
DEL MAR: The board that oversees operation of the
Del Mar Fairgrounds approved a contract yesterday to host the music festival
Street Scene on Sept. 22 and 23.
The contract, which has not yet been signed,
would prohibit Street Scene's Los Angeles-based producer from allowing the

Scene. Yesterday, a few of those groups repeated their concerns, and thanked the
board for addressing them.
“I'm very confident that we can be the host
of this event and do it in a safe and secure manner,” said fairgrounds general
manager and CEO Tim Fennell. –E.F.
Now just sign the damn thing!!
