Obtaining A Permit
Event Planning Tips
Location! Location! Location!
When planning your event, look for places that have plenty of parking, restrooms, and spaces for vendors. If the event will be using parking that is not free and public, a letter of approval is required from any and all property owners.
Health and Safety
Always plan for the unexpected and prepare to act. The City requires an emergency plan for all events and it must address how you, the organizer, will deal with emergency concerns.
Traffic
Are you hosting a parade? Or Festival? Traffic can be a real concern without clearly marked detours and parking. A traffic control plan and map is required for any special event.
