<br />residence. Sections 21-110, 111 and 112 (a)(6)'of-the Municipal
<br />Code allow fairs, displays, shows and exhibits, as an exception
<br />in all zoning districts, provided that they are conducted by
<br />public or semi-public voluntary organizations such as Boy Scouts
<br />Girl Scouts, Campfire Girls, Izaak Walton League or the 4-H Fair,
<br />subject to a number of conditions and Circus Vargas does not
<br />qualify for this exception. Further, since the site is zoned
<br />"A" Residence and within 1,OOO feet of the Hamilton School,
<br />which is leased by the School Corporation to the Michiana
<br />College of: Commerce, the provisions of Section 4-22e(1) and
<br />maybe Section 4-22e(2) must apply.
<br />Based on the above information provided to the Board, upon a
<br />motion made by Mr. Leszczynski, seconded by Mr. Hill and .
<br />carried, the above application was denied as it did not meet
<br />circus licensing requirements concerning zoning.
