4-7-1: PURPOSE:
The variety of special events held within the Village are instrumental in creating a comfortable, small town atmosphere and help contribute to the quality of life of Sugar Grove residents, promote tourism, draw first time visitors, and strengthen our community’s character. At the same time, the Village must have sufficient notice prior to an event so that it can evaluate the potential impact such an event might have on the resources of Village departments, Village owned properties and facilities, and ultimately on the community as a whole. Each event has unique characteristics and will have a different impact on these services and resources, other property or improvements in the surrounding area, and the health, safety, and welfare of the public. It is the intent of the Village to preserve the public’s health, safety, welfare, and to promote the responsible use of publicly owned facilities, property and resources in support of public and private special events. Therefore, special events shall be considered on a case-by-case basis in accordance with the rules that follow. (Ord. 2016-07-05D, 7-5-2016; amd. Ord. 20220104B, 1-4-2022)
