Staff feels this type of activity is incompatible with the neighborhood.

Mr. Skat moved to approve per Staff s recommendation with the exception of item #3 to allow truck pulls and mud bogs but eliminate outdoor concerts, hours of operation are not to exceed 11:00 PM, a sunset provision of 18 months, and only two events per month (total of twenty -four per year).
