To consider the special event application request for the EMU Spring Commencement Ceremony on Sunday, May 5, 2019.

Body

Presented By:  Erin Smith, Events Manager, HDR

Recommendation and Review

EMU is requesting the closure of Park Rd. from Mt. Clinton Pike to Parkwood Dr. from 12:45pm-3pm on Sunday, May 5th during commencement exercises.

 

This application was reviewed and approved by the Special Events Committee on 1/23/19.

 

As in previous years, Harrisonburg Public Works will provide a message board at the Ballfield on Mount Clinton Pike and drop off barricades. EMU staff and volunteers will place barricades and help manage the closure of Park Rd.

 

 

Key Issues:

-HPD support (1 HPD off-duty officer)

-Public Works support (barricades, message boards)

-COI attached

-Community Development/HFD: Organizer will contact about tent inspections/permits.
