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 October 1 through October 31 daily. 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 Police and Fire have 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
the council approve Resolution No. 14-118, Authorizing issuance of a Special Event Permit.
