This application was reviewed and approved by the Special Events Committee on May 16, 2024. 

 

The total cost of this event is estimated to be around $7,000. The event organizer is responsible for payment of applicable charges.

 

 

Key Issues: 

- PW Support (street closures, message boards, roll off container)

- HPD Support (off-duty officers)
