Subject: EXEMPTION FROM SPECIAL EVENTS BY-LAW - MOSPORT PARK
Recommendations:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and
Administration Committee recommend to Council the following
1 . THAT Report CD-25-96 be received;
2 . THAT an exemption from Sections 2a) and 3 (1) of By-law 91-56
be granted to allow the Clerk to issue a Special Events
Licence to Mosport Park Limited for racing events to be held
on May 16 to 20, 1996, and May 31 to June 2, 1996; and
3 . THAT Bernard Kamin and Nelson Hudes be advised of Council' s
decision.
BACKGROUND AND COMMENT:
Mosport Park Limited has submitted applications to the
Municipality for special event licences in accordance with By-law
91-56 for the scheduled racing events this season.
In previous years, the licences for the racing events were issued
pursuant to By-law 78-50 . It has been determined, however, that
By-law 91-56, Exhibitions Held for Hire or Gain, more accurately
applies to the events . Once Mosport was made aware of this, the
appropriate application forms were submitted together with the
applicant' s licence fees . The only outstanding issues at the
time of writing of this report are :
• Insurance policy - has been submitted by Mosport' s insurance
agent and is being reviewed by the Municipality' s insurer to
ensure compliance with our by-law.

• Requirement of the Director of Public Works - Mosport has
submitted a cheque in the amount of $30, 000 in order to
reimburse the owners of land within 150 metres of the site
for damage . By letter dated April 25, 1996, the Director of
Public Works advised Mosport of the method of determining,
repairing and paying for any damage . Confirmation of these
items by Mosport is awaited.
Because By-law 91-56 states that the application for a special
events licence must be submitted to the Clerk at least 45 days
prior to an event and the licence must be issued at least 30 days
prior to an event, it is recommended that an exemption be granted
to Sections 2a) and 3 (1) to allow for licences to be issued for
the racing events scheduled for May 16 to 20, 1996 and May 31 to
June 2, 1996 . It should be noted that the race being held on
May 16 to 20 also includes a concert on the Saturday night .
