RE:2024 Chasco Fiesta Alcohol Beverage Special Event Application and Car Show Wet Zone Request

DISCUSSION:

The Special Events Team met to review the Alcoholic Beverage Special Event Application for Chasco Fiesta at their regular meeting on January 9th, 2024.  Chasco Fiesta intends to sell beer and wine in Sims Park on the following days and times:

 

Friday, March 15th 5pm to 11pm

Saturday, March 16th 1pm to 11pm

Sunday, March 17th 1pm to 9pm

Incidentally, a site map denoting the locations where beer and wine will be sold is attached.

 

 

Additionally, the Special Events Team met to review the Chasco Car Show Special Event Application which was approved by the S.E.T. Team on Tuesday, January 23rd, 2024.  The event will be held in downtown New Port Richey and span the areas identified in the site map included in the application packet.  The Chasco Car Show does not plan to sell alcoholic beverages and only requests to create a "wet-zone" so that attendees can purchase and consume beer or wine from local businesses while attending the Chasco Car Show. The consumption of beer and wine will occur between the hours of 11am and 4pm on March 17th, 2024.



RECOMMENDATION:
The recommendation before the City Council is to approve the Alcoholic Beverage Special Event Application for Chasco Fiesta in Sims Park and also approve the request to extend the "wet-zone" for the Chasco Car Show on Sunday, March 17th, 2024.
