RE: Z-10152
Mahomes Event Center – Conditional Use Permit
320 W. 7th Street
Development Staff Comments:
1. Provide the maximum number of people at any given time.
2. Will there be ticketed events?
3. Noise mitigation must be considered with all events.
4. All events must take place inside the building.
5. Will the parking area on the east side of the building be utilized for the proposed
use? If so, provide a notarized parking agreement from the property owner.
Response to Development Staff Comments – Upper Crust Events LLC
1. Maximum Occupancy:The maximum occupancy is currently pending review and
approval will be obtained by the Fire Marshal. We will provide the confirmed number as
soon as it becomes available.
2. Ticketed Events:Yes, the venue will host ticketed events. These may be managed and
promoted through online platforms such as Eventbrite or Eventnoire.
3. Noise Mitigation:Noise mitigation strategies will be implemented and considered for all
events to ensure compliance with city regulations and to minimize disruption to
surrounding areas.
4. Indoor Events Only:All events will take place entirely indoors within the facility at all
times.
5. East Side Parking Area: The parking area located on the east side of the building is not
officially authorized for use by Upper Crust Events LLC, as we are unable to obtain a
notarized agreement due to the property owner’s passing. While guests may
independently choose to utilize the lot, they do so at their own risk. Upper Crust Events
LLC does not assume responsibility or liability for vehicles parked in that area, and such
use is not permitted or endorsed by the business. That said, there is ample street parking
available nearby, as well as access to a paid parking garage, providing guests with
alternative and secure parking options.

Fire Safety Compliance Statement Response
Upper Crust Events LLC acknowledges that a change in use to an Event Center requires full
compliance with applicable building and fire safety codes. The building currently has both a fire
sprinkler system and a fire alarm system in place. We are committed to undergoing a full plan
review and will actively proceed with all inspections and upgrades after receiving City approval.
All systems will be reviewed and approved by the Fire Marshal prior to opening to ensure the
safety and well-being of our guests and staff.

Good afternoon! Summit Utilities has no objections to the proposed agenda with the following
note:
- I recently corresponded with Ben Wells with White-Daters on the ROW abandonment at
16th and Boyce. We do have facilities here, so a utility easement must be left behind in this
abandonment.
