      (1)   The conduct of the parade, public assembly or special event will not substantially interrupt the safe and orderly movement of other pedestrian or vehicular traffic contiguous to its route or location;
      (2)   The conduct of the parade, public assembly or special event will not require the diversion of so great a number of City police officers to properly police the line of movement and the areas contiguous thereto as to prevent normal police protection of the City;
      (3)   The concentration of persons, animals, and vehicles at public assembly points of the parade, public assembly or special event will not unduly interfere with proper fire and police protection of, or ambulance service to, areas contiguous to such public assembly areas;
      (4)   The conduct of the parade, public assembly or special event is not reasonably likely to cause injury to persons or property;
      (5)   The parade, public assembly or special event is scheduled to move from its point of origin to its point of termination expeditiously and without unreasonable delays en route;

      (8)   The applicant has secured the police protection, if any, required under Section 904.05;
      (9)   Such parade, public assembly or special event is not for the primary purpose of advertising any product, goods or event that is primarily for private profit, and the parade itself is not primarily for profit.
