Recommendation and Review

Background: The Race to Beat Breast Cancer 5k Run/Walk is an annual event that takes place in and around Westover Park. It serves as a fundraiser for the RMH Foundation. The event organizer has requested the street closures on South Dogwood Drive.

 

This application was reviewed and approved by the Special Events Committee on August 7, 2025.  

 

The total cost of this event is estimated to be around $2,500. The event organizer is responsible for payment of applicable charges.

 

Key Issues: 

- PW Support (street closures, no parking signage, digital message boards)

- HPD Support (off-duty officers)

- P&R Support (event logistics)
