City Code Chapter 615 are the City's regulations regarding special events. The purpose of these
regulations is to protect the health, safety and welfare of citizens by regulating time, place and

special event permits.
BACKGROUND
The City has received an application from Waldoch Farm, Inc., to hold a special event on their
property September 17 through October 31 daily. This is their third annual event. Since food is
involved, a condition is being attached to their permit requiring Waldoch Farm, Inc. to contact
Anoka County Environmental Services for approval.
The Public Safety Department has reviewed the applications and have signed off on the permit.
Staff has reviewed the application and also signed off on the permit.
RECOMMENDATION
Waldoch Farm, Inc.'s application for a special event permit meets the requirements of the city
code and has not been found to present any safety concerns. Therefore, staff recommends that
