Regardless of whether or not, permits have been issued, the City Manager, or his or her designee, may cancel a special event without prior notice for any significant change in conditions which would, or may, adversely affect the public health or safety of the community, or for any condition that would place city facilities, grounds or other natural resources at risk of damage or destruction if the event were permitted to take place. The City Manager, or his or her designee, has the authority to cancel or stop an event if the conditions required for approval, including insurance coverage, of the event are not being met. In addition, the City Manager and city public safety officials have the authority to cancel or stop an event, or place additional restriction on the event, if it is deemed that public health safety or welfare is being jeopardized, and/or would be better served with additional restrictions. In case of public emergency or other event (natural disaster, or any other emergency deemed by the designated city authority) or required property repairs, a special event may be cancelled or rescheduled by the City Manager or his or her designee. If an event organizer, for any reason, must cancel its event, he, she or they must notify the City Manager. Cancellations must be in written form; verbal cancellations will not be accepted.
