HoWever, City <br />Staff did attempt to mail notice of the application to adjacent property owners and <br />approximately ~ of the Alpaca Estates neighborhood to the west. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />The music festival proposal estimates that 3,000-5,000 persons will attend the event. The <br />event will be held within the perimeter fencing of the current softball fields. Part of that <br />area will be used accommodate sanitary facilities, entertainment stage, food and beverage <br />concessions, and medical facilities. The remainder of that area will be used for off-street <br />parking. The applicants have made arrangements with A1 Pearson, the owner of farmland <br />to the west, to use his property for overflow parking. The parking concession will be <br />managed by the Ramsey Lions. It is staff's understanding that there will be shuttle <br />service available for persons parking on the Pearson farm. <br /> <br />Because the event will be adjacent to T.H. #10, staff did contact Mn/DOT. Keith Van <br />Wagner of Mn/DOT Permits Division indicates that no special permit is required for this <br />outdoor concert. Mr. Van Wagner noted that the local police department has the <br />authority to implement any traffic control necessary on Hwy. #10. The license has been <br />drafted to require the applicants to pay for police presence on the day of the event. <br /> <br />Police Chief Gustafson has researched outdoor sales of liquor. He has reported that State <br />law requires that the area in which liquor will be served has to be fenced and the <br />insurance policy covering the liquor sales must state in writing that the outdoor sales of <br />liquor is covered. Police Chief Gustafson has inspected the site of the event and it is <br />properly fenced. <br /> <br />The following items are enclosed for your information and review: <br /> <br />a) <br />b) <br />c) <br /> <br />Site location map <br />Music Festival Proposal <br />Proposed resolution approving the issuance of a license <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br /> <br />
