APRIL 14, 2015 15-193 RESOLUTION
CONT'D
WHEREAS, in making this determination whether to waive the requirements of the
noise ordinance the Council is to consider:
(1) the hardship to the applicant, the community, and other persons of not
granting the variance;
(2) the adverse impact on health, safety, and welfare of persons owning,
residing, or occupying property in the surrounding area and the public in
general;
(3) the adverse effect on surrounding property;
(4) whether the circumstance, hardship, or situation to be addressed by the
proposed variance is unique, and not applicable generally to other
circumstances;
(5) whether the person or entity seeking the variance is otherwise in
compliance with all applicable ordinances, regulations and statutes; and
(6) any other adverse impacts of granting the variance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of
Oshkosh that approval is granted to Waterfest, Inc. (John Casper) to utilize Leach
Amphitheatre, Friday, August 7, 2015, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. for their Waterfest
Concert Series, in accordance with the municipal code and the attached application, with
the following exceptions/conditions:
A. An exception to the provisions of section 4-24(B)(6) and 4-25(A) of the City
of Oshkosh Municipal Code is granted to allow the sale of beer and wine in
the Leach Amphitheater until 11:00 p.m. during the Waterfest events.
B. An exception to the provisions of 19-4(A)(3) and 17-42 of the City of
Oshkosh Municipal Code is granted to allow amplified music until 11:00 p.m.
The Common Council has considered the criteria pertaining to the granting of
a variance and finds that compliance with the time limit established by the
ordinance would be an unnecessary hardship on the applicant and that a
variance should be granted.
