Repeat Events: Special events that are consistent in scope and impact to adjacent property with a special event held at the property in which a special event permit was granted within 18 months of the date of application. The Community Development Director shall have sole discretion in determining whether a special event is consistent with a prior special event held on the property. Special events meeting the criteria set forth herein shall be subject to all stipulations within the original special event permit, unless stipulations are added or deleted by the City.
Block Parties: Events held for the benefit of a residential neighborhood in which a portion of a public street will be closed.
Special events meeting the criteria set forth in subsection (B)(1)(a), (B)(1)(b), and (B)(1)(c) above shall register their event with the City at least 10 days prior to the event, receive information on applicable codes and pay a nominal fee established by the City.
Limited Display of Bagged Goods: In order to make customers aware of the availability of certain products not generally allowed to be stored or sold outside an enclosed building, a limited display of bagged goods may be allowed as part of a permitted sidewalk or seasonal sale of plant material. The provision for this limited display is not intended to provide for high volume sales or broad product lines provided by most larger discount, garden, or home improvement retailers. Where that scale of sales is desired, it must be conducted inside a building or approved permanent garden center area.
The amount of area dedicated to bagged goods shall clearly be a minor accessory to that provided for plant sales. This shall include only a limited amount of stock for a small number of the most commonly purchased items such as mulch or soil, geared for impulse and convenience purchase. As an alternative, a retailer may choose to display samples of the broader line of products available at another location on the site.
The bagged goods area shall be incorporated into the plant display, and the plant display shall be configured to generally screen the bagged material from public view from off of the property. While palletized storage may be used, the height of materials allowed shall generally conform to and be integrated with the size and configuration of the overall plant display.
Events in City Parks: Events open to the public that are not Type 2 Special Events that are held at a City-owned park, but not including standard shelter rentals.
Outdoor Entertainment: Events that involve entertainment provided by performance artists held outdoors.
Other Special Events: Events and activities not listed within subsections (a) through (h) above that otherwise meet the standards set forth in Section 4-1-B-25-E.
Type 2 Special Events: Large scale short-term cultural and entertainment events, including but not limited to concerts, circuses, fairs, carnivals, and festivals, that meet some or all of the following criteria, as determined by the Community Development Director:
Special Events Not Requiring a Permit: The following special events shall not require a special event permit:
Parking lot sales of food shall require a Food Establishment License from the Kansas Department of Agriculture and shall comply with all applicable regulations in the Kansas Food Code as well as any other Kansas food sale laws and regulations.
If an external generator is used, it must comply with the provisions of Section 4-1-C-4 and must be reasonably shielded from public view.
Parking lot food sales lasting more than 7 days shall comply with the following additional regulations:
No drives or maneuvering areas may be utilized unless such drive or maneuvering areas are directly adjacent to the approved display or demonstration area, not required for emergency access, and not needed to provide proper circulation through the lot. The City shall also have authority to limit the number of parking spaces used by any special event when appropriate.

1Rear Setback: Fences constructed within a designated residential fence/wall buffer area or land use buffer area must comply with the location shown on the approved plan. On a double-frontage lot where the rear property line abuts a collector or local street and where a house on adjacent property fronts on that street or where adjacent property has the potential to be subdivided into a lot which fronts on that street, the rear yard fence of the double-frontage lot shall be located no closer to the abutting street right-of-way than a line established by the platted building line of the adjacent property or, if unplatted, the distance from the abutting street right-of-way to the required front building line. However, the Community Development Director shall have the authority to reduce the required rear fence setback for such a double-frontage lot, provided that safe visibility at driveways, the view to the street for the neighboring properties, and the general character of the neighborhood along the street are maintained. This determination shall take into consideration the height and opaqueness of the proposed fence, the difference in elevation of the affected properties, and other existing site characteristics.
2Provided that the fence does not impede safe visibility for pedestrians and vehicles as determined by the Community Development Director. See Figure 5-B-1-A and Figure 5-B-1-B.
3When a fence or wall is located within 3' of or directly on top of a retaining wall, the height of the fence/wall plus the height of the retaining wall shall not exceed 10'. See Figure 5-B-1-C.
4Height Measurements.

Garage, Craft And Sample Sales: Garage sales, craft sales and manufacturers' sample sales shall be a permitted accessory use in the residential zoning districts; provided, that:
Home Occupations: A home occupation is an accessory use by the occupant(s) of a dwelling unit in which goods are produced or traded, or services are rendered, as an economic enterprise. Such use shall be clearly incidental or subordinate to the residential use of a dwelling. A home occupation shall be considered an accessory use, subject to the following standards:
Intent: These home occupation standards are intended to permit the establishment of certain incidental and accessory home occupation uses in residential neighborhoods under conditions that will ensure their compatibility with the residential character of the neighborhood. They are intended to permit residents to engage in home occupations that are compatible with residential land uses and to ensure that home occupations do not adversely affect the integrity of residential areas. Use of a dwelling as a “Hotel or Motel” as defined in Section 4-3-C-3 of this Code shall not be allowed as a home occupation. The standards of this section shall not apply to a “Day Care” as defined in Section 4-3-C-2 of this Code.

Satellite Dish Antennas: The provisions of this subsection shall apply to the installation, location and screening of satellite dishes and accessories except where the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has preempted regulation of small antennas, which are defined as Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) antennas 1 meter or less in diameter. It is the intent of these requirements to further the community’s health, safety, welfare, and aesthetic objectives; to provide for timely installation of satellite dish antennas; and to allow reasonable flexibility in locating and screening the antennas to optimize reception or transmission while maintaining accepted community aesthetic standards. Locational restrictions of accessory structures such as satellite dish antennas are intended to ensure safety and to minimize obstruction of views and open space from adjacent properties. Screening and locational requirements are intended to minimize the visual impact of larger satellite dish antennas and to set aesthetic standards that are comparable to that required for other accessory structures in commercial and industrial zoning districts, such as dumpsters and mechanical equipment, and to be more compatible with the nonobtrusive structures that are commonly found in residential neighborhoods.
Solar Energy Systems: The provisions of this subsection shall apply to the design, construction, installation, alteration, materials, location, repair and removal of solar systems and accessories connected, attached or adjacent to a building or structure. The provisions of this subsection relate to solar energy systems and component requirements similar to those provided in the Building Code.* Solar energy systems, whether active or passive, shall be designed to be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood and shall comply with the following standards:

Temporary portable storage containers are permitted for a period not to exceed a total of 30 days within any calendar year. The Community Development Director is authorized to grant additional time for temporary portable storage containers, when requested in writing.
Temporary portable storage containers must be located on private property and a paved surface, and may not obstruct any city right-of-way, sidewalks or interfere with the normal operations of the permanent use on the property.
The maximum allowable size for temporary portable storage containers shall be 160 square feet with an overall length not to exceed 20 feet or height of eight (8) feet.
Rail cars, semi-trailers, or other similar structures may not be used for temporary storage.
The temporary portable storage containers shall be weather resistant, and made of a high quality/commercial grade material intended for outdoor use and be water tight.
All temporary portable storage containers shall be delivered and maintained in good condition, free from rodents, insects, or graffiti. It shall be the responsibility of the property owner or tenant and the supplying company to maintain the portable storage containers.

Temporary Structures for Elementary and Secondary Schools: Temporary structures for the use of elementary and secondary schools shall be permitted in any zoning district; provided:
The temporary structure is not located within any required parking or landscape area.
A staff approved all weather surface is provided for access to the temporary structure.
The applicant provides a parking study demonstrating the existing parking facilities can accommodate the additional classrooms or space, or how additional parking spaces can be provided, per City code.
The temporary structure must meet applicable fire and building code requirements, as well as other applicable development regulations.
The applicant and City enter into a Development Agreement inclusive of a phasing plan, requirements for maintenance and/or repairs, and duration of the temporary structure.
A separate building permit is not required for the temporary structure, but a temporary structure will only be allowed in conjunction with a building permit for improvements and/or expansion to an existing permanent school structure located on the campus property.
The temporary structure shall be removed within 2 years of issuance of a building permit or upon expiration of the building permit for said project, whichever first occurs. The Community Development Director is authorized to grant additional time for a temporary structure, when requested in writing.

Repeat Events: Special events that are consistent in scope and impact to adjacent property with a special event held at the property in which a special event permit was granted within 18 months of the date of application. The Community Development Director shall have sole discretion in determining whether a special event is consistent with a prior special event held on the property. Special events meeting the criteria set forth herein shall be subject to all stipulations within the original special event permit, unless stipulations are added or deleted by the City.
Block Parties: Events held for the benefit of a residential neighborhood in which a portion of a public street will be closed.
Special events meeting the criteria set forth in subsection (B)(1)(a), (B)(1)(b), and (B)(1)(c) above shall register their event with the City at least 10 days prior to the event, receive information on applicable codes and pay a nominal fee established by the City.
Limited Display of Bagged Goods: In order to make customers aware of the availability of certain products not generally allowed to be stored or sold outside an enclosed building, a limited display of bagged goods may be allowed as part of a permitted sidewalk or seasonal sale of plant material. The provision for this limited display is not intended to provide for high volume sales or broad product lines provided by most larger discount, garden, or home improvement retailers. Where that scale of sales is desired, it must be conducted inside a building or approved permanent garden center area.
The amount of area dedicated to bagged goods shall clearly be a minor accessory to that provided for plant sales. This shall include only a limited amount of stock for a small number of the most commonly purchased items such as mulch or soil, geared for impulse and convenience purchase. As an alternative, a retailer may choose to display samples of the broader line of products available at another location on the site.
The bagged goods area shall be incorporated into the plant display, and the plant display shall be configured to generally screen the bagged material from public view from off of the property. While palletized storage may be used, the height of materials allowed shall generally conform to and be integrated with the size and configuration of the overall plant display.
Events in City Parks: Events open to the public that are not Type 2 Special Events that are held at a City-owned park, but not including standard shelter rentals.
Outdoor Entertainment: Events that involve entertainment provided by performance artists held outdoors.
Other Special Events: Events and activities not listed within subsections (a) through (h) above that otherwise meet the standards set forth in Section 4-1-B-25-E.
Type 2 Special Events: Large scale short-term cultural and entertainment events, including but not limited to concerts, circuses, fairs, carnivals, and festivals, that meet some or all of the following criteria, as determined by the Community Development Director:
Special Events Not Requiring a Permit: The following special events shall not require a special event permit:
Parking lot sales of food shall require a Food Establishment License from the Kansas Department of Agriculture and shall comply with all applicable regulations in the Kansas Food Code as well as any other Kansas food sale laws and regulations.
If an external generator is used, it must comply with the provisions of Section 4-1-C-4 and must be reasonably shielded from public view.
Parking lot food sales lasting more than 7 days shall comply with the following additional regulations:
No drives or maneuvering areas may be utilized unless such drive or maneuvering areas are directly adjacent to the approved display or demonstration area, not required for emergency access, and not needed to provide proper circulation through the lot. The City shall also have authority to limit the number of parking spaces used by any special event when appropriate.

1Rear Setback: Fences constructed within a designated residential fence/wall buffer area or land use buffer area must comply with the location shown on the approved plan. On a double-frontage lot where the rear property line abuts a collector or local street and where a house on adjacent property fronts on that street or where adjacent property has the potential to be subdivided into a lot which fronts on that street, the rear yard fence of the double-frontage lot shall be located no closer to the abutting street right-of-way than a line established by the platted building line of the adjacent property or, if unplatted, the distance from the abutting street right-of-way to the required front building line. However, the Community Development Director shall have the authority to reduce the required rear fence setback for such a double-frontage lot, provided that safe visibility at driveways, the view to the street for the neighboring properties, and the general character of the neighborhood along the street are maintained. This determination shall take into consideration the height and opaqueness of the proposed fence, the difference in elevation of the affected properties, and other existing site characteristics.
2Provided that the fence does not impede safe visibility for pedestrians and vehicles as determined by the Community Development Director. See Figure 5-B-1-A and Figure 5-B-1-B.
3When a fence or wall is located within 3' of or directly on top of a retaining wall, the height of the fence/wall plus the height of the retaining wall shall not exceed 10'. See Figure 5-B-1-C.
4Height Measurements.
Fence/Wall Height: Fence/wall height is the vertical distance measured from the adjacent grade to the top of the fence posts or panels, whichever is higher.
Retaining Wall Height: Height of a retaining wall for determining whether engineering is required is defined as the distance between the bottom of the footing to the top of the wall, regardless of the amount of exposed wall. Height of a retaining wall in relation to maximum height allowed in Table 1 above is the vertical distance measured from the adjacent grade to the top of the wall.

Such use shall be clearly incidental or subordinate to the residential use of a dwelling. A home occupation shall be considered an accessory use, subject to the following standards:
Intent: These home occupation standards are intended to permit the establishment of certain incidental and accessory home occupation uses in residential neighborhoods under conditions that will ensure their compatibility with the residential character of the neighborhood. They are intended to permit residents to engage in home occupations that are compatible with residential land uses and to ensure that home occupations do not adversely affect the integrity of residential areas. Use of a dwelling as a “Hotel or Motel” as defined in Section 4-3-C-3 of this Code shall not be allowed as a home occupation. The standards of this section shall not apply to a “Day Care” as defined in Section 4-3-C-2 of this Code.

Satellite Dish Antennas: The provisions of this subsection shall apply to the installation, location and screening of satellite dishes and accessories except where the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has preempted regulation of small antennas, which are defined as Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) antennas 1 meter or less in diameter. It is the intent of these requirements to further the community’s health, safety, welfare, and aesthetic objectives; to provide for timely installation of satellite dish antennas; and to allow reasonable flexibility in locating and screening the antennas to optimize reception or transmission while maintaining accepted community aesthetic standards. Locational restrictions of accessory structures such as satellite dish antennas are intended to ensure safety and to minimize obstruction of views and open space from adjacent properties. Screening and locational requirements are intended to minimize the visual impact of larger satellite dish antennas and to set aesthetic standards that are comparable to that required for other accessory structures in commercial and industrial zoning districts, such as dumpsters and mechanical equipment, and to be more compatible with the nonobtrusive structures that are commonly found in residential neighborhoods.
Solar Energy Systems: The provisions of this subsection shall apply to the design, construction, installation, alteration, materials, location, repair and removal of solar systems and accessories connected, attached or adjacent to a building or structure. The provisions of this subsection relate to solar energy systems and component requirements similar to those provided in the Building Code.* Solar energy systems, whether active or passive, shall be designed to be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood and shall comply with the following standards:
