! <br />I <br /> <br />PC CASE #: 5 <br /> <br /> CARNIVAL REGULATIONS <br />By: Joyce Pruitt Hottinger, Administrative Services Manager <br />and Sylvia Frolik, Zoning Administrator <br /> <br />Background: <br />This item was tabled at the August 24th meeting, due to the length of the City Council Agenda, <br />and staff was directed to bring this item forth to the next Personnel Committee meeting. City <br />Council tabled action on a proposed carnival ordinance on July 27, to provide for an opportunity <br />to address the issue of liquor controls on a carnival site and to clarify the relationship of <br />conditional use permit events to the carnival ordinance. <br /> <br />Listed below are the proposed changes to the carnival ordinance: <br /> <br />Section 2 License Required <br />The exemption from carnival licensing for fraternal, religious, veteran or educational <br />organizations has been extended to those events which meet the definition of carnival that <br />are regulated by a conditional use permit. <br /> <br />Section 6- Licensing <br />The license fee shall be established by Council resolution. The previous draft referenced <br />that language and referenced the fee would be on a daily basis. The elimination of this <br />provides for greater Council discretion in establishing the license fee at a daily or flat rate <br />charge. <br /> <br />Section 9- Operation <br />"A" has been rewritten to prohibit alcoholic beverages on the premises of operation <br />without appropriate liquor licensure. This statement was revised based on Council's <br />concern regarding a general provision prohibiting all intoxicating liquor on site. <br /> <br />Site Clean Up Fee <br />The site clean up fee was revised to reflect a charge of $500.00 for the first acre or <br />portion thereof and $100.00 for each additional acre or portion thereof. This section was <br />revised to address concerns that adequate funding be available in the event a site is not <br />cleaned up adequately. These and all other monetary obligations associated with the <br />carnival license will be established by a resolution that will accompany the second <br />reading of the proposed ordinance. <br /> <br />Committee Action: <br />Motion to recommend Council introduce Ordinance #99- <br />to Chapter 7 of the Ramsey City Code. <br /> <br />__ adding Section 7.14, "Carnivals" <br /> <br />Carnival Regulations Council Case <br />September 14, 1999 <br />Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
