BIDDEFORD, Maine (AP) — Biddeford City Council is giving the 29th La Kermesse Franco-Americaine Festival a go-ahead for this June.

The Journal Tribune of Biddeford says council gave its approval, based on several conditions, to hold the event at Mechanics Park on June 24-26.

Approval came despite some unresolved issues with the City of Biddeford.

For the past two years, the event has been plagued with problems, including bad weather, low attendance, lack of funds to pay off vendors and legal issues.
