Don’t miss out on an opportunity to attend an upcoming stakeholder engagement about recommendations that would require residential and hotel developments within 600 feet of an outdoor music venue and within 300 feet of a performance venue to conduct a sound assessment and disclose to future residents when they sell or lease units that there is a nearby venue and that a sound assessment has been completed. Residential development applicants will be required to complete the sound assessment during the site plan review process.   

The proposed process is staff’s response to Council Resolution No. 20181018-038 which directs the City Manager to propose programs, rules, and ordinances necessary to improve compatibility between residents, lodging establishments, and music-related businesses.
