Any event that is otherwise regulated by the city through the use of another regulatory manner, <br />such as an interim use permit or conditional use permit. <br />d. The use of traditional public forums as alternative channels of communication by the public, <br />provided that such use is for the free exercise of constitutionally protected activities and does <br />not disrupt or interfere with traffic on public streets or the use of public places by other members <br />of the public. <br />e. Approved activities on a city park. <br />(4) Special events subject to administrative approval. <br /> a. Upon receipt of an application the community development director or designee shall review the <br />application. If it is deemed that the event is minor in nature and does not fall under any of the <br />items under (5) in this section the application can be administratively approved. The community <br />development director has the right to forward any special event permit application to the city <br />council. No more than two special events on a property per calendar year shall be <br />administratively approved. <br />(5) Special events subject to city council approval: <br />a. Any event that serves alcohol. <br />b. Any event that expects over 200 people in attendance. <br />c. Any event that will include live or amplified music or sound. <br />d. Any event that will extend after dusk. <br />e. Any event proposed in the same calendar year as two preceding events on the same property. <br />f. Cannabis events, subject to the following additional standards: <br />1. On-site consumption during cannabis events is limited to lower-potency hemp edible <br />products. <br />2. Cannabis events shall only take place between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. <br />3. Cannabis event operations shall be consistent with requirements listed in Minn. Stat. § <br />342.40, as well as any other applicable rule or law. <br />4. Any special event permit for a cannabis event shall have a condition requiring that a copy <br />of a state-issued cannabis event organizer license, as licensed under Minn. Stat. § 342.39, <br />be provided to the city clerk prior to the event taking place. An approved special event <br />permit for a cannabis event that does not receive state approval of a cannabis event <br />organizer license is ineffective. <br />5. Proof of insurance, and a cash escrow payment to the city for damages. <br />(6) The city may place restrictions, conditions and requirements on a special event permit to protect the <br />health, safety, and welfare of the community, mitigate unfavorable consequences of activities resulting <br />from issuing the permit, enforce laws and regulations, and ensure compliance with the conditions of <br />the permit. <br />(7) In order to recommend denial of a special event permit, the city must find that the proposed use will <br />meet one or more of the conditions found below: <br />a. The information contained in the application or supplemental information requested from the <br />applicant is false or nonexistent in any material detail.
