CUP 2026-02 — wedding venue at 3680 Newmark Avenue

Owner of the adjacent property said her family was never notified of the first hearing; the event area would sit less than 50 feet from her daughter's bedrooms, and the shared driveway has been blocked multiple times, including by a delivery truck. She asked for denial or much stronger conditions including a taller sound wall.

The property owner described plans for a small venue of fewer than 100 occupants, said he has been open with neighbors, installed a new gate and driveway off Newmark, limited easement use to emergency access, and is willing to accept a 9 p.m. end time and minimal amplified music.

The owner's wife said the 1898 home is the second oldest in Sanger with historical significance and should be shared with the whole community; she wished the neighbors had raised concerns with them directly rather than 'behind our backs.'

Another neighbor, speaking during the reopened public comment, said she was never notified, has been blocked in her tiny driveway roughly five times including by a table-and-chair delivery truck, works in emergency services, and asked that the permit be denied or her conditions considered.
