Staff Recommendation: The objectives of the special event policy are to: • Clarify the use of the public right of way for special events, • Minimize City expenses associate4 with special events, • Provide options and minimize expenses for special event coordinators, • Minimize safety risks to the event participants and the general,public, • Minimize the disruption of public services. Staff recommends Council discuss and provide direction on the following policy issues included in the attached draft policy: 1) Page 1. Scope: "This policy does not apply to the following community events: July 41h celebration, Children's Halloween Parade, Festival of Lights Parade." Staff Rationale: These events are long standing community-wide events. 2) Page 2. Fees: "All event applicants pay the base fee of$130." Staff Rationale: This is the current base fee for events that do not require staff overtime and is intended to cover, in part, the administrative work associated with the application. 3) Page 2. Fees: "Events that require City staff overtime (determined by the City). City staff will review the proposed route and determine how much City staff overtime will be needed. In addition to the base permit fee of$130, the event applicant will be charged 60%of actual costs." Staff Rationale: Special events can enhance the community, bring people together and have a positive economic impact. And, some events require significant city resources, including staff overtime costs home by Public Works and Police. 4) Page 3. Rolling Road Closure: "Some special events on roadways with two or more lanes of traffic in each direction can be accommodated with a rolling road closure of one lane of traffic. A rolling road closure event is one that lasts 45 minutes or less, does not block intersections for more than 5 minutes and can be managed with a minimum number of on-duty city staff. These events are subject to the $130 base fee and will not be charged a Rush Fee (see below). Permit Page ] of4 �r, CITY OF ASHLAND approval is subject to staff availability." Staff Rationale: Some events occur at the last minute. For example: When Ashland High School wins an athletic championship they have requested a parade though town the week after the win. 5) Pape 3. Application and Deadline Rush Fee: "With the exception of rolling road closures, applicants for a special event permit who cannot meet the 90 day requirement will be charged a Rush Fee of$250 if requisite City staff can be made available within the time frame requested. Otherwise the permit will be denied and the $250 refunded." Staff Rational: Last minute permit applications require significant amount of staff time to respond to the request, meet the applicant's needs and to minimize the disruption of public services. For example: Permit applications for film and video that require the use of the right of way usually are submitted just days in advance of actual filming. Prior to meeting with event organizers, staff met with representatives of Southern Oregon Film and Television and were told, the industry rarely, if ever, is able to meet an advance deadline for the use of the right of way. We were told the industry is accustomed to paying a "rush fee" to secure needed permits. 6) Pape 3. Time Limit for Road Closure: "Roads will be closed for no longer than two hours." Staff Rational: Road closures, particularly in the downtown and business areas of the community can have a negative impact on local businesses by impeding customers access. A maximum closure of two hours mitigates the impact on businesses. 7) Page 3. Bicycle Races: "The downtown area, particularly the Plaza, becomes extremely busy. with pedestrians, vehicles, merchants etc. For the safety or the general public and due to the high number of cyclists and the speed of travel, all bicycle races must clear the downtown area 9:30 a.m." Staff Rationale: The downtown and the Plaza become very congested with participants. An early start time reduces potential conflict with the general public. For example: Race participants on or near the Plaza for a start time inevitably spill onto adjacent streets and sidewalks creating safety concerns for pedestrians and motorists. 8) Page 4. Neutral Start for Bicycle Races: "A neutral start is used at the beginning of bicycle races to create a parade atmosphere as the event gets underway This controlled pace protects, riders, pedestrians and vehicles in highly congested traffic zones. A neutral start will be used until the signal is given by an event official. City staff will determine at what point the neutral start ends and the racing begins." Staff Rational: Last year the bicycle race on Ashland Street/Highway 66 created some serious safety concerns that can be mitigated using a neutral start. 9) Page 4. Certificate of Insurance and Hold Harmless Agreement: "The City of Ashland requires a Certificate of Insurance in the amount of no less than one million ($1,000,000) dollars to protect the City against claims for personal injury or property damage that could that could occur because of the event. The certificate will name the City as an additional insured. A copy of the certificate must be submitted with the completed permit application. In addition, the City requires the applicant sign a hold harmless agreement (provided by the City) in order to receive a permit. Staff Rational: This requirement protects the City (and ODOT) from possible loss or damage that could occur as a result of the event and the hold harmless agreement Page 2 of 4 Mr, CITY OF ASHLAND protects the City should an event participant become injured. However, this requirement could prove difficult for some special event applicants, such as ad hoc "freedom of speech" protest marches. The Council could decide that the City assumes liability for property damages and personal injury damages for these types of events. Background: In June of 2011, the City Council approved Resolution 2011-22 for interim fees for special events and directed staff to come back to the Council with a policy for special events and an adjusted fee schedule. An internal team of representatives from Public Works, Police, Parks, Administration and Fire have been meeting regularly over the past several months to evaluate the current practice to approve/deny special event permit applications and to identify challenges and opportunities for changes to the current practice. The group evaluated the many different types of special events, the labor associated with the various events, safety for the general public, spectators and event participants, and the impacts, both negative and positive on the general public and the disruption of public services. In September, the team met with six event coordinators each of whom organizes an annual special event in Ashland. One of the suggestions that surfaced during that meeting was the use of trained volunteers for intersections not on State Highways rather than the use of police or public works staff. State law requires police or ODOT certified flaggers on State Highways. Staff has arranged for ODOT to provide a class for flagger volunteers in Ashland in early April. Information about the class has been send to event organizers. Another idea that surfaced during the meeting was for the City to determine pre-approved routes with general information about the resources required for that route. Staff has developed a number of pre- approved routes that will assist organizers to plan and develop their event. Some of the organizers feel the fees should only reflect the amount of time the participants are actually on City streets and not the time needed for set-up and take down. One organizer suggested using the USFS formula to calculate the fee (e.g. gross income less sponsor cost of prizes x 5% = permit fee). Recently, the Public Works Director and the Police Chief met with event organizers who coordinate the Mt. Ashland Hill Climb. One suggestion was to eliminate the base fee of$130 when the event is the same as the previous year. Staff is not recommending this change, since each application must be reviewed each year. Staff has done considerable research of special event permits and fees in other Oregon cities and has modeled the attached draft policy on Bend and Eugene. The Bend Special Event Coordinator in the Police Department receives the completed permit application, reviews the proposed route and determines the number of required barricades, cones, and delineators and the number of trained volunteers for traffic control. The event organizer is responsible for placing the required barricades and cones (either rented or owned) and enlisting trained volunteers who have completed an ODOT flaggers class to man the identified intersections on non-State roads. If police are needed, the event organizer pays the actual costs at a four hour minimum per officer. On the Page 3 of 4 CITY OF ASHLAND day of the event, the Special Event coordinator checks the route and the placement of fiaggers/volunteers prior to allowing the race to begin. The fee is $174. Eugene is the process of revising their process. Currently, the base fee is $25 and the event organizer pays the actual costs of police and public works. The actual cost for the Eugene marathon is between $15,000 and $20,000. Most recently in early September was the Eugene half marathon. That route was primarily along the bike path and the actual cost to the event organizer was $3,000. Related City Policies: Resolution 2011-22 AMC 11.12.050 Council Options: Staff is seeking input on the policy discussion points and will bring the Special Event Policy to the City Council for approval on March 20.

A Special Event is an organized activity, such as a parade, race, street fair, athletic event etc. that requires the exclusive use of public right of ways or city-owned property including but not limited to sidewalks, streets, parking spaces, parking lots, alleys etc. or that reroutes or delays the normal flow of pedestrians and vehicles thereon. The City of Ashland regulates these types of events to ensure the safety of the event participants, spectators and the general public and to minimize inconvenience to the general public and disruption of public services. NOTE: This policy does not apply to neighborhood residential block parties. Purpose The purpose of this policy is clarify the use of the public right of way and city property for special events; to minimize City expenses associated with special events; to provide options and minimize expenses for special event coordinators; and to minimize safety risks to the event participants and the general public. Scope This policy applies to all persons requesting the use of any public right of way which has been determined by Police Department and or the Public Works department to require unimpeded access and controlled traffic for the safety of the event participants and general public. This policy does not apply to the following events: July 4`h celebration, Children's Halloween Parade, Festival of Lights. [Policy Decision for Council] Use of City parks and facilities is subject to policies set forth by the Parks and Recreation Commission. Use of the Plaza requires a separate permit available at www.ashland.or.us/plazapermit. Permit Permits are required for all special events. Special Event Permits are available on line at www.ashland.or.us/specialevent. 1 Note: Applicants requesting use of State Highway 99 (North Main, East Main through downtown, Lithia Way, Siskiyou Blvd.) and/or Highway 66 (Ashland Street) must secure a permit from the Oregon Department of Transportation, in addition to a permit from the City of Ashland. Applicants requesting use of East Main from Walker east to the city limits and/or Crowson Road must secure a permit from Jackson County. Fees All applicants pay an administrative fee of$130 when the application is submitted. If the application is not approved or if the applicant withdraws the request $60 is refunded to the applicant. ]Policy Decision for Council] 1) Events that do not require City staff overtime (determined by the City): City staff will review the route proposed in the permit application and determine the location of barricades, traffic safety cones and traffic control locations that require a ODOT trained traffic volunteer. The event coordinator is responsible for securing and placing barricades, cones and volunteers at each designated location at least 60 minutes in advance of the start of the event. The event cannot begin until authorized City personnel drive the route prior to the race to make sure barricades, cones and volunteers are in place and then informs the event organizer of approval. If event organizers are unable to secure the required number of volunteers and therefore require city staff, the applicant will pay 50%of actual cost for staff overtime. Note: Trained volunteers may not be used on State Highways e.g. North Main, East Main, Siskiyou Boulevard and Ashland Street. Special Events making use of these roads will require-ODOT certified flaggers (public works personnel, police officers, hired flaggers). Actual costs for trained personnel are in addition to the base permit fee of$130. ,2) Events that require City staff overtime (determined by the City) City staff will review the proposed route and determine how much City staff overtime will be needed. In addition to the base permit fee of$130, the event applicant will be charged 60%of actual costs. ]Policy Decision for Council] Meeting with City Staff After receiving the completed Special Event Permit, a meeting between City staff and the applicant will occur so both parties can review the proposed route and traffic management plan and are clear on the expectations, limitations and costs of the event. Trained Volunteers The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) provides day-long traffic/flagger training for event volunteers. If using ODOT trained volunteers, the applicant must submit a list of the volunteers who will work the event to the City at least 30 days prior to the event. 2 Pre-approved Routes The City has identified a number of different special event routes within Ashland, on both State and non-State Highways. The approximate resources and requirements associated with traffic control for each pre-approved route are available for event coordinators planning a special event. Rolling Road Closure Some special events on roadways with two or more lanes of traffic in each direction can be accommodated with a rolling road closure of one lane of traffic. A rolling road closure event is one that lasts 45 minutes or less, does not block intersections for more than 5 minutes and can be managed with on-duty city staff. These events are subject to the $130 base fee only and will not be charged a Rush Fee (see below). Permit approval is subject to staff availability. [Policy Decision for Council] Application and Deadline The application for a special use permit is posted on the City's website at www.ashland.or.us/specialevent or can be obtained from the Public Works Department at 541-488-5587. Completed applications should be submitted to the Public Works Department no later than 90 days in advance of the event date. It can take up to three months for City Departments to coordinate traffic plans, police services, public work services and more. Applicants will be notified of permit approval at least 60 days after the application is submitted. Rush Fee: With the exception of rolling road closures, applicants for a special event permit who cannot meet the 90 day requirement will be charged a Rush Fee of$250 in addition to the base fee of$130 if the requisite City staff can be made available within the time frame requested. 'Otherwise the permit will be denied and the $250 will be refunded. ]Policy Decision for Council] Time Limit for Road Closure Roads will be closed for no longer than two hours. Event organizers should plan accordingly. Road closures, particularly in the downtown and business areas of the community, impact local businesses and can impede customer access. A maximum road closure of two hours ensures those businesses are not adversely impacted by the special event. ]Policy Decision for Council] Bicycle Races The downtown area, particularly the Plaza, becomes extremely busy with pedestrians, vehicles, merchants, etc. For the safety of the general public and due to the high number of cyclists and the speed of travel, all bicycle races must clear the downtown area no later than 9:30 a.m. ]Policy Decision for Council] 3 Neutral Start for Bicycle Races A neutral start will be used until the signal is given by an event official. A neutral start is used at the beginning of bicycle races to create a parade atmosphere as the event gets underway This controlled pace protects, riders, pedestrians and vehicles in highly congested traffic zones. City staff will determine at what point the neutral start ends and the racing begins. Special Event applicants may be denied future permits if racers pass the lead police vehicle. (Policy Decision for Council] Notification of Businesses find Neighbors Event organizers are responsible for posting notification signs along the event route 24 hours in advance of the event. In addition, event organizers must notify businesses and homes along the route of the street closure, as well as cul-de-sac streets that intersect with the route, fourteen days in advance. At a minimum, the notification must include the date and length of time road will be closed. Public Works may require signatures to be collected indicating the property owners have been advised of the closure. Public Safety Safety of participants and the general public is the highest priority. The final decision on public safety requirements rests with the Ashland Police Department and Public Works. The Oregon Department of Transportation requires certified flaggers or police personnel on State Highways at locations that require traffic control. Volunteers who have completed an ODOT.traffic control class may be used at specific locations on non-State Highways. Certificate of Insurance and Hold Harmless Agreement The City of Ashland requires a Certificate of Insurance in the amount of no less than one million ($1,000,000) dollars to protect the City against claims for personal injury or property damage that could that could occur because of the event. The certificate will name the City as an additional insured. A copy of the certificate must be submitted with the completed permit application. MOT also requires a Certificate of Insurance if the event occurs on ODOT right of way. In addition, the City 'requires the applicant sign a hold harmless agreement (provided by the City) in order to receive a permit. ]Policy Decision for Council] Other Permits/Contacts The Special Event Permit covers the use of the sidewalk(s) or street(s).
