The proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity. Given the proposed activities and hours of operation for the subject use, the park would not negatively impact the surrounding uses.

No organized competitive events or loud music would be permitted, thus avoiding possible adverse impacts on the adjacent residents.
