(A) The purpose of this chapter is to establish a process for permitting events such as special events, parades, meetings, block parties, assemblies, concerts, or other public assemblies conducted on any public way or public property, excluding those conducted in a permanent building constructed for that purpose.
(B) The city, as part of the process of permitting these events, needs to ensure orderly and safe use of public spaces by all members of the public, preserve public spaces in an intact and attractive condition, to regulate competing uses of public spaces, and to ensure the safe, convenient, and orderly flow of vehicle and foot traffic on the public ways.
