EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City Council Regular Meeting: June 15, 2021
AGENDA SECTION:
AGENDA ITEM: Outdoor Music – American Legion
Consent
PREPARED BY: Erin Fasbender, City Clerk AGENDA NO. 6.g.
ATTACHMENTS: Draft Resolution and Event Layout APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve Resolution Authorizing American Legion
Post 65 to Host Outdoor Music & Approving Temporary Liquor License.
BACKGROUND
The American Legion Post 65 has requested the ability to host a band outside on their patio on Saturday,
August 21, 2021.
Because City Code 7-1-6 forbids the use of electronic sound systems / audio equipment “in a manner in
which it is plainly audible at a distance of fifty feet or more from the property line”, the Council would
need to issue a permit for this event to be legal. City code does allow for exceptions, one of which is
“when the sound is in connection with activities for which a permit has been granted by the city.”
In addition, they have requested a 1 Day Temporary Liquor License to expand their licensed liquor
premises to the parking lot for this event.
Staff is suggesting the following conditions on the permit;
1. Permit is valid only for the date of Saturday, August 21, 2021; and
2. Any music cannot be played beyond 11 p.m.; and
3. The parking lot area be fenced in a manner consistent with prior years and approved by the
Rosemount Chief of Police; and
4. Access points to the fenced area are staffed by the American Legion to control entry/exit.
Additional security staff will be hired by the American Legion and will roam and be stationed to
monitor any issues with fencing/unlawful entry.
The event will be host to alumni of Rosemount High School class of 1996.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the above-stated motion.
