RESOLUTION NO. 2011- {l"J...
A RESOLUTION ADOPTING INTERIM FEES
FOR SPECIAL EVENTS
RECITALS:
A. Section 11.12.050 of the Ashland Municipal Code authorizes the temporary closure of a
City street to traffic when deemed necessary for parades, dances, races, or other special
events.
B. The City of Ashland has been approving such events for many years, charging the
applicant actual city costs including overtime and equipment.
C. The number of types of special events is increasing. Such temporary closures can have an
impact on city services including Police, Ashland Fire and Rescue, Parks and Recreation
and Public Works.
D. On May 17, 2011 the City Council authorized staff to develop a new Special Events
Permit and to implement interim special event fees.
E. Special events have an economic benefit to the community and yet can increase the city's
costs. The proposed interim special event fees below reflect an average cost-per-type of
event that splits the city-incurred expenses between the applicant and the City.
F. A Special Event is an organized activity that reroutes or delays the normal flow of
pedestrians and traffic, such as parades, races, athletic events or other processions in
streets, on sidewalks or pedestrian pathways.
G. The interim Special Event Permit requirements do not apply to neighborhood block
parties or to activities for which the City has previously established fee and requirements,
such as film and video production activities.
