Last week, a San Diego judge issued an injunction voiding the contract for the annual fair's ride operator. Officials say there's not enough time to find another one.
The annual San Diego County Fair could be canceled again this year, according to court documents filed Monday.
“There is a probability of prevailing on the claim that the bid was tailored specifically for one bidder,” he wrote. “There is at least the appearance of favoritism, which is contrary to public policy.”But Medel did not make a definitive finding regarding that issue. “It's the same arguments they made before," Moot said."That they can't put on a midway carnival if there's an injunction in place. That's simply not true. Talley Amusements can be there and put on a full carnival if that's what they want.”
"This is a complex process that involves careful negotiations with multiple companies." the 22nd DAA said in a statement."We cannot simply assign the contract to a new company, as has been suggested publicly; we must work within the requirements of the court order and ensure that any new contract is awarded in a fair and equitable manner."
In a declaration to the court, 22nd DAA chief operations officer Katie Mueller said the district does not have the staff to return to an independent midway, because it had laid off 85% of its staff because of the COVID-19 downturn.
