TO: Mayor and City Council COUNCIL MEETING C City Administrator 1'�� 12 FROM: Mark Bernhardson, DATE: August 9, 1985 CITY OF QNONO SUBJECT: Bohn's Point Residents/Parade of Homes As you wi 11 note in the attached letter the residents of Bohn's Point have come to the City Council to address their concerns regarding the possibility of the Krutzig property being in the Parade of Homes. Initial request was to see if the City could either specifically or effectively prohibit such activity in an established neighborhood such as theirs. It has been indicated to Ms. Fox that to the best of our knowledge there is no specific means that presently exists in ordinance for regulating such activity apart from the large assembly ordinance, which would only govern in the case where the number of people on site exceeds 300 at any one time. It was then explored as to whether something could be passed to so limit such activity, however it was estimated such may take a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks by which time the Parade of Homes may well be over for the year. (Parade of Homes will happen in the middle of September running 3 weekends and the two weeks between those weekends.) At a meeting regarding another matter on August 8th with Mr. Krutzig the issue was broached regarding the Parade of Homes and he had indicated that indeed he intends to do so and is attempting to get the property finished in time to have it presentable. As you may recall Mr. Krutzig was an individual who had a house in the Parade of Homes last year up near the (Pink Palace). He indicated in our initial meeting regarding this that he had been intending to discuss the matter with the Police and perhaps utilize a Police Officer for traffic direction during the weekends, as he had last year. Additionally we had indicated to him that based on a survey of the situation that the one thing we could regulate is public safety vehicle access which in that neighborhood would probably require the posting of No Parking on one side in most places and posting of No Parking Both Sides in some selected turnaround places. The immediate abutting neighbors will be meeting on another matter this Monday morning following discussion on sewer hookups it is the intent to raise the issue regarding the Parade of Homes to see if there can be a mutually satisfactory agreement with the residents. (This will be the first time that the neighbors have spoken to Mr. Kurtzig about their concerns regarding the Parade of Homes.) Additional concerns are possible in relationship to the legality of attempting to limit or prohibit Parade of Homes activities either generally as they are in fact not dissimilar to large Open Houses for sale of homes and secondly that it would be difficult
