EXEMPTION TO CHAPTER 450 (NOISE) - CALVARY
UNITED CHURCH
RECOMMENDATION:
That an exemption to Chapter 450 (Noise) of the City of Kitchener Municipal Code be granted to
the Calvary United Church between the hours of 1 :00 PM and 4:00PM on June 18, 2005.
BACKGROUND:
The Calvary United Church is hosting it's Annual Strawberry Social on the afternoon of Saturday
June 18, 2005, between the hours of 1 PM to 4 PM. This is an outdoor event that will include
the Waterloo Concert Band. As such, the Church is requesting an exemption to Chapter 450
(Noise) for the afternoon. A copy of their exemption request is attached.
REPORT:
This event is being communicated to the adjacent neighbourhood as much as possible. Given
that the event is taking place during the mid-afternoon, there is less of a chance that the music
will cause any disruptions in the neighbourhood. This event has taken place in past years and
the By-law Enforcement Division is not aware of any complaints received.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
None identified at this time.
COMMUNICATIONS:
No Corporate Communications required.
CONCLUSION:
Based on the circumstances surrounding this event, the By-law Enforcement Division does not
object to this request for an exemption.
