First Reading of Ordinance 820, an Ordinance Revising Section 611.04 of the City Code Pertaining to Outdoor Special Events. Assistant Clerk-Administrator Crane presented the amendment adding language to exempt City sponsored events from the Special Events Policy. She explained that if adopted, the ordinance would become effective June 20, 2009. However, the Park, Recreation and Forestry Commission would like to hold an event in early June, 2009. She requested Council consideration to allow the event to be held without payment of a fee. Assistant Clerk-Administrator Crane advised of complaints received regarding this ordinance because they feel it is driving away events while others have expressed no objection. She suggested that topic be further discussed at a future Workshop meeting. Darren Peterson, Parks, Recreation and Forestry Commissioner, explained the Music in the Park event planned at City Hall Park for June 9 with a backup date of June 2. Because a sponsor will be paying for the cost of the band, it will be a free event. Council Member Mueller asked if the event will be completed by 10:00 p.m. Mr. Peterson answered in the affirmative, noting it is being planned from 7:30 p.m. to 9:15 p.m. Council
