PERMITS): Mr. Barker stated the Board wants to repeal the requirements for temporary assemblage
permits and the fee that is charged. He stated the temporary assembly permit uses are usually covered
under USRs or any land use contexts. He explained there will be better language in the USR to define
the requirements to host horse racing events. Chair Kirkmeyer clarified if there are any temporary
assemblages in process, they will be addressed under the old Code. In response to Commissioner
Conway, Mr. Barker stated any potential violations are referred to the Department of Planning Services.
Mr. Barker explained there are USRs that require a temporary assemblage permit; for example, the
motocross event hosted by the Leahy's. No public testimony was offered concerning this matter. Chair
Kirkmeyer clarified a property owner should be allowed to host 350 people and holding a party on your
personal property should not need a temporary assemblage permit. Commissioner Freeman stated law
enforcement will check on the compliant whether there is a temporary assembly permit or a USR. Mr.
Barker stated it would be a determination by the Department of Planning Services if any violations exist.
Chair Kirkmeyer confirmed staff will investigate any complaint they receive. Commissioner Moreno
confirmed this could be confusing to staff. Commissioner James stated it is the right of the property owner
