SUBJECT: Event
DATE: April 7, 2005
Selectman Dan Horgan contacted our office regarding the event you had spoken with me about
last January. I have enclosed a copy of the letter I sent to you on January.26 outlining the steps
which need to be taken in order to hold the event on August 11, 12, 13, and 14.
If you could please let me know if the dates are set and that you wish`to use the field adjacent to
the MacArthur School and the John Simpkins School, wgZE��ate for the
Board of Selectmen in May 2005. As stated in the left r o needs to
contact the building commission in town hall as there ar amusement
device inspections and permitting. �/`/ �
That process needs to start as quickly as possible. You will also need to have Cushing contact the
fire department as there are certain regulations concerning tents. The building commissioner will
also handle the tent issue with Cushing. I would also suggest that you contact the police ((/
department most likely Lt. Xiarhos to determine the need for any police presence especially if
people are going to be parking in the town hall lot and cross Route 28 or if there is a belief that
traffic may be an issue on Old Main Street. The only other question I can think of would be if
food is to be served, a health permit will be necessary and the person or persons who wish to
operate food vendor stands need to contact the Board of Health. In addition, we will need to be
aware if a sound system of any sort is to be used as that would have to be part of the hearing and
we would need to notify abutters
We would be happy to assist you with the process and if you could let me know if the dates are
firm and Cushing Amusements has been notified to contact the various inspectors.
