Date and Time: September 2nd starting 5:30 pm until 12:30 am

2. Provide and install adequate traffic barricades directing motorists around closure
3. Contact all businesses/residents affected and make them aware of the event
4. Clean the area to be used and provide waste cans during the event
5. A minimum 10' wide unobstructed lane on the closed street to provide access for emergency vehicles

ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED

The Council may:
• Approve the request to close the street for the event; or
• Deny the street closure

FINANCIAL IMPACT

Administrative time to process the permit is offset by the application fee.  Any Police assistance, traffic control, and litter removal are the responsibility of the Chase Hawks Memorial Association.
