Special Event Permit Information

It is the City's goal to assist event organizers in planning safe and successful events while minimizing the impact on public safety and welfare. Some events require a Special Event Permit to assure that an activity meets legal requirements of the use of public land and rights of way and assures the City that adequate services such as traffic control, sanitation, solid waste, and public safety issues are addressed. Other events may just need a courtesy notification to the appropriate City department.

Potholes: Report and Avoid

Winter’s gift of snow and ice takes an unforgiving toll on our streets, making spring months a particularly bad time for potholes. Our warm spring-like weather lately is a welcome reprieve from winter’s cold and snow, but it also brings something much less welcome, an increase in the number of potholes, and with it, pothole accidents.
