The city has determined that vending at city-approved parades poses and constitutes a menace to the health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the city in that traffic generated thereby upon city streets and sidewalks becomes unnecessarily congested due to activities and sales by vendors during the course of city-approved parades, posing a great health and safety problem. Accordingly, all sales activities by itinerant vendors is hereby prohibited at city approved parades. Under this section,
ITINERANT VENDOR shall mean and include all persons, both principal and agent who engage in a temporary or transient business selling or offering to sell goods, wares or merchandise, or any other thing of value with the intention of conducting such business during and upon the course of a parade held in the city.
