A. Except for races, no special event shall be held in any residentially zoned area of the city; however, at the discretion of the city manager or designee, special events other than races may be permitted on and/or adjacent to property owned and occupied by a church and/or school, which church or school is either a legal or legal nonconforming use of such property.

B. One person, designated on the application, shall be in charge of, and responsible for, the special event.

C. For races, a minimum of five officials shall be stationed within each mile of the route of the special event to ensure order, and a minimum of six officials shall be assigned to assure order at the finish line. Each official shall be readily distinguishable through some visible means of identification. First aid stations and/or private ambulances shall be provided to administer basic first aid to participants in the race.

D. Within such time prior to the starting time as directed by the police chief, the permit holder shall obtain barricades and/or cones and place such devices in such locations as are specified by the police chief. As soon as practicable after conclusion of the special event, and in no event later than two hours after the conclusion of the special event, the permit holder shall pick up and return barricades and/or cones needed for the event and pay the city for any lost or stolen barricades and/or cones.

E. No person shall, without the consent of the permit holder, join or participate in a special event, or in any manner interfere with its orderly conduct.

F. The city manager or designee may impose reasonable requirements concerning the time and place of the special event, accommodation of traffic and such other requirements as he or she finds to be reasonably necessary for the protection of persons or property.
