The Baldwin County Commission denied on Tuesday a request from the Fort Morgan Parading Society to host their third annual Mardi Gras parade next month.
The move makes Prichard the sole remaining community that has yet to officially cancel its organized parades during this year’s Carnival season.
Prichard Mayor Jimmie Gardner said a determination on whether to host the parades will be made on Thursday. He added, “if it was left up to me, we won’t be having it.”
In Baldwin County, commissioners acknowledged that the denial was “based on the situation at hand with the COVID-19 virus.”
