Stricter guidelines for Vendors will be in effect this year from the Mitchell County Inspections Department. Any canopy 16 feet or larger in any dimension is subject to a building permit. There must be 20 feet between each 16 foot or larger tent unless they are lined up end to end and secured together. Fabric canopies of any size must be manufactured with fire retardant materials, and must have a fire retardant label permanently affixed. If your canopy is 16' or larger, please call the Mitchell County Inspections Department at 828-688-4771 or email Tommy Winchester, Building Inspector, at [email protected] for more information.
