Special Events Guidelines
Special Events Guidelines (PDF: 14K) This document describes many of the events requiring a permit and outlines the procedure for obtaining the permit.
Some events require only a fire permit, while others require a permit from other city
departments, including the Office of Special Events.
Regulation is based on the type of event, the setting and the potential risk to the participants and the surrounding community.
Questions may be addressed to Special Services at (619) 533-4400.
