Background:
The applicant is requesting a temporary use permit for an outdoor festival (Hoggetowne Medieval Faire) with overnight camping over a series of three weekends in January 2022. TUP’s are normally handled administratively. However, per the ULDC, the provision for overnight camping and events lasting more than three days requires Board approval at a single public hearing.
