(3) The estimated number of participants and viewers.
(4) If the special event is a race, run or walk, the number of marked and unmarked intersections along the route, and the number and type of traffic control devices along such route.

Such decision will be made by the City Manager. Such action is not a waiver of a regulatory requirement based upon political, social or religious grounds or reasons, or based upon the content of the views expressed, but instead is an affirmative act of city association or speech.
