INTRODUCTION
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
manner of conduct by establishing permit requirements. The City charges a fee of $50 for
special event permits.
BACKGROUND
The City has received an application from Waldoch Farm, Inc., to hold a special event on their
property July 27th and 28th as well as August 3`d and 4th. This is the first annual event.
Vanelli's by the Lake will be on site during this event to offer for sale limited food items as well
as wine and beer. Vanelli's holds a state caterer's license and is therefore allowed for this type
of service.
The Public Safety Department has reviewed the application and has 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
the council approve Resolution No. 19-87, Authorizing issuance of a Special Event Permit.
