Resident warns proposed Moose Lodge event venue could bring noise, alcohol to a residential area
Summary
A resident urged caution about a proposed nightclub or event center at the former Moose Lodge, warned of potential noise and policing problems if a liquor license is granted in a residential neighborhood, and pointed council members to the municipal noise‑control code (chapter 8).
A resident addressing the council urged caution about a proposal to convert the former Moose Lodge into a nightclub or event center, saying such uses can create noise and policing issues when located near residences. The speaker compared the situation to past complaints at a veterans' club and said the city’s municipal code on noise control (chapter 8) contains provisions the council should review.
"This has the potential of being in a residential area and being, probably pretty loud," the resident said, urging council scrutiny of any liquor‑license application and suggesting the city look to noise‑control standards before permitting decisions move forward. The speaker noted he could pull police reports if council wished and said he would return with further comments if problems continued.
