Report File
Subject: PROPOSED EDENFEST CONCERT, MOSPORT PARK
Recommendations:
It is respectfully recommended:
1 . THAT Report CD-42-96 be received; and
2 . THAT the By-law attached to Report CD-42-96 be passed; and
3 . THAT Derek A. Joynt, Vice President of YourShow Productions be
advised of Council' s actions .
Plans for the proposed EdenFest Concert at Mosport Park are proceeding.
Certain items must be dealt with in order to prepare for the Concert .
YourShow Productions have asked for the Municipality to consider
enacting certain By-laws for the duration of the Concert . By-laws were
requested to prohibit hawkers and pedlars, refreshment vehicles, camping
on municipal land and to restrict and prohibit parking in the vicinity
of Mosport Park. These items were referred to staff for consideration
and report .
Staff have reviewed the Municipality' s current Hawker and Pedlar and
Refreshment Vehicle By-laws . By-law 92-230 presently prohibits all
unlicensed hawkers and pedlars anywhere within the Municipality. Any
person intending to sell goods requires a license issued by the
Municipality. Without that license the vendor is subject to charges . If
the vendor wishes to apply for a license to set up a booth or location
to operate, it will be necessary for the vendor to find land which is
zoned for commercial sales . The lands in the area of Mosport Park are
zoned agricultural, and therefore do not meet the required licensing
criteria. The same holds true for any refreshment vehicles . Staff are
not able to control camping on private land, however, any camping on
municipal land will be dealt with as a trespassing offence.
This leaves the matters related to parking. The Concert organizers have
asked staff for permission to use an area at the north west corner of
the Mosport property for overflow staff parking. This property is part
of Mosport' s holdings . It is the same area that the Regional Police
will be using for their Mobile Command Post and parking for their own
vehicles . Staff therefore do n h
....4ave a concern with this use .

Parking enforcement duties around the property will be handled by staff .
Due to the extended hours involved, additional enforcement staff will be
required. At present, the Public Works supervisors are sworn in for
parking duties only as they apply to snow removal . The attached By-law
will repeal their present appointment By-laws and replace them with
appointments for all parking duties and add Ronald Baker as an
enforcement officer.
Firefighters have agreed to assist with enforcement during the Concert
and are therefore included in the appointing By-law. Their inclusion in
the By-law will also allow them to tag illegally parked vehicles which
interfere with their duties at fire scenes .
Once the By-law has been passed and the officers are sworn in, staff
believe that there should be sufficient staff to handle the required
duties for the Concert .
