Council approves noise variances for summer community events
Summary
Fairport Harbor council approved noise variance requests for multiple summer events including a lighthouse gala, church revival, concerts, and a neighborhood band show.
Council granted noise variance requests for five community events this summer, allowing amplified sound at specified hours for each event.
Administrator Lucas Darling read the variance requests into the record: the Fairport Harbor Marine Museum and Lighthouse 200th-anniversary gala (Saturday, June 21, noise permitted 12 p.m.–11 p.m.); Zion Lutheran Church and Family of Faith Christian Church tent revival (Saturday, Aug. 30; noise hours given separately from event hours); the Slovenian Club concerts on Saturday, June 21 and Saturday, July 19 (both 6 p.m.–11 p.m. for noise), and a band at 501 New Fourth Street on Saturday, July 5 (1 p.m.–5 p.m. for noise). Darling specified the times listed were for noise variances and may differ from event start–end times.
Council moved for approval and the motion carried by voice vote. The transcript records aye votes from council members during the roll call (for example: “Nick? Aye. Schrader? Aye. Kennedy? Aye. Bertone? Aye. Penny Price? Aye.”).
The record does not include detailed permit conditions, required mitigation measures, or enforcement plans for excessive noise; applicants must still follow village permitting processes.
