PUBLIC PROPERTY SPECIAL EVENT PERMITS
PUBLIC PROPERTY SPECIAL EVENT PERMITS
The public right-of-way in possession of the City is primarily for the use of the public. These regulations prescribe the condition through which special events of limited duration may be permitted to occur within the City that involve a request from an individual or organization to use City property or right-of-way in the conduct or promotion of the event, thereby creating an anticipated significant impact to the City property or right-of-way, such as increased vehicle or pedestrian traffic or the closure of a public street, and it is advisable or necessary to include City staff in the preparation, planning, coordination, and approval of the requested special event to promote the health, safety, and welfare of the general public and of the event participants or attendees.

1. “City property” means the land owned and maintained by the City.
2. “Person” means any natural person, their heirs, executors, administrators, or assigns, firm, partnership, association, corporation, company, or organization, its or their successors or assigns, or the agent of any of them.
