Summary

At its March 28 meeting, the Punta Gorda City Development Review Committee approved minutes from Feb. 28 and granted an event permit for the Charlotte County Bridal Event at Lashley Park on Oct. 18, 2025, conditioned on a certificate of insurance naming the city as additional insured and a signed officer-detail agreement requiring one officer.

The Punta Gorda City Development Review Committee on Friday approved minutes from its Feb. 28 meeting and granted an event permit for the Charlotte County Bridal Event at Lashley Park for Oct. 18, 2025.

Committee zoning official Rachel Berry opened the meeting at 9 a.m. in the Lashley Community Room and recorded the actions. The committee approved the Feb. 28 minutes by voice vote; individual tallies were not recorded in the transcript and the chair announced, "Motion carries."

The committee then reviewed event application 25-191406 for the Charlotte County Bridal Event, proposed for Oct. 18 from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Lashley Park, 96 Nesbitt Street. According to the application discussed in the meeting, the event will include vendor booths, entertainment and food trucks. Urban design staff noted that the city must be listed as an additional insured on the applicant's certificate of insurance.

An unidentified staff member involved in public-safety coordination told the committee that "1 officer will be required," and staff said the signed officer-detail agreement had not yet been received. Ron Tolan, a member of the Bridal Committee, asked whether a standard form exists for the agreement: "On the agreement, is there a form document or anything that we can utilize for that?" Staff replied that a one-page contract form is available online and through the city office.

Following discussion of those conditions, a committee member moved to approve application 25-191406 and a second was recorded; the chair announced the voice vote in favor and said, "Motion carries." The transcript does not list individual vote counts.

No other permit applications were considered. The meeting closed at 9:04 a.m.; the committee's next meeting is scheduled for Friday, April 11 at 9 a.m. in the Lashley Community Room.
