Mayor warns council about potential noise, liquor issues if Moose Lodge becomes event venue
Summary
A council-addressing speaker raised concerns that a proposed conversion of the former Moose Lodge to a nightclub or event center serving alcohol could generate neighborhood noise and complaints; the speaker pointed councilmembers to municipal noise-control rules (chapter 8) and said the city has faced similar issues in the past.
A speaker addressed the Eden Plus City Council during public comment on July 13 to flag concerns about a permit application for the former Moose Lodge, which may be converted into a nightclub or event center.
The commenter said the venue would likely host weddings and other private events with alcohol and could be sited in a residential area, where such uses have in the past generated noise complaints and police calls. The speaker referenced the city's municipal code on noise control (chapter 8) and urged council members to review the code and consider neighborhood impacts if a liquor-license application is received.
The speaker said the city previously worked with a veterans' organization facing similar complaints and encouraged council action to avoid repeating negative outcomes. No specific permit decision was recorded at the July 13 meeting.
