SUBJECT:
EXEMPTION TO CHAPTER 450 (NOISE) - THE HIVE
EATERY AND SPIRITS
RECOMMENDATION:
That an exemption to Chapter 450 (Noise) of the City of Kitchener Municipal Code be granted to
The Hive Eatery and Spirits at 200 King Street East, on Saturday June 19, 2010, between the
hours of 12 noon and 9 P.M. for their 2010 Cancer Beatdown fundraiser for the Canadian
Cancer Society.
BACKGROUND:
The Hive Eatery is planning to host an outdoor fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society in
th
the parking lot of 200 King Street East, on Saturday June 19 between the hours of 12 noon
and 9 P.M.. Given the outdoor activity, there is a possibility of higher than normal levels of
noise during the event. Attached is a copy of their exemption request.
REPORT:
This is the first such event held at this location, that is known to staff. The factors associated
with this event that may mitigate a potential noise complaint are, the nature of the event, it being
on a Saturday, and the time limitation of 9 P.M..
In the past By-law Enforcement staff have responded to noise complaints at this establishment,
although not for an event such as this. The owner of The Hive has provided his contact
information to staff in the event that a complaint is received regarding the event. This will allow
staff to quickly contact him in the event that staff need to speak to him.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
None identified at this time.

CONCLUSION:
Based on the circumstances surrounding this event, the By-law Enforcement Division does not
object to this request for an exemption.
