The Toronto Community Council recommends that City Council, for LLBO purposes, declare the North by North East event taking place on John Street, between Queen Street West and Adelaide Street West, on June 13 and 14, 1998, to be an event of municipal significance, and indicate that it has no objection to it taking place.

The Toronto Community Council submits the following communication (February 27, 1998) from Mr. Andy McLean, Managing Director, North by Northeast, Music Festival and Conference:

I forward the following application for submission to the Toronto Community Council for consideration and approval at their next meeting.

An application has been filed with the Liquor Licence Board of Ontario to obtain a Special Occasion Licence to serve alcoholic beverages within the City street allowance on John Street between Queen Street West and Adelaide Street West in conjunction with a music festival.

The application covers the event hours of 12:00 noon on Saturday, 13 June, to 2:00 a.m. on Sunday, 14 June 1998, for which an application for a Street Occupation Permit has been filed with City Works Services.

I look forward to receiving confirmation of the Council's approval. Please contact me at 416-469-0986 (FAX 469-0576) if additional information is required.

(A copy of the Street Occupation Permit Application referred to in the foregoing report was forwarded to all Members of the Toronto Community Council with the agenda for its meeting on April 1 and 2, 1998, and a copy thereof is on file in the office of the City Clerk).
