during the winter months, unless temporary permit obtained 2 Food must be served by a licensed caterer 3 Hour limit of group functions not to exceed 9 P M 4 No open bar on premises for above groups However, champagne will be allowed on a two person/one bottle limit 5 No persons to leave the premises of the Inn with alcohol 6 No live bands or loud music 7 Innkeepers must be present and visible at all times * If during the summer months someone approaches us for a larger function, it would be possible to submit to the City for a one day Special Use Permit The site is located next to Pioneer

Lions, church socials, picnics, family reunions etc ) 3 band concerts, 5 fun camps (Boy Scouts), folk dancing once a month, puppet shows, and Lumberjack Days activities not to mention all the passive recreational activities and neighborhood use of the park 1 • This clearly indicates the heavy use of the park during the Spring, Summer and Fall The parking inside the Park can maintain 6-10 cars and the parking on Laurel Street, which is North of the Park, can maintain 8-10 cars parked diagonally This is not enough parking for the heavy use of the Park The two acre Bed and Breakfast site has

and Breakfast and to the West on Laurel During special events in the Park, users park first along Laurel, East of Second and Second Street in front of the Park, then up Laurel Street Another issue to consider is that the Bed and Breakfast is not sewered by a septic system Sewer service is available in the area at the corner of Second and Laurel The City has a policy of users connecting to the sewer system It is recommended that a condition be placed on the permit to require connection to the sewer system within two years RECOMMENDATION Approval nNnTTTnNC 1 A maximum of two wedding
