A. The director may include in a festival event permit, among other provisions, reasonable terms or conditions as to the: (1) time, place and manner of the event; (2) compliance with health and sanitary regulations; (3) provision of emergency services, security, and other services deemed necessary by the city for health, safety, and welfare purposes; and (4) payment of or reimbursement for city costs associated with the event.

B. In addition to the reasonable terms and conditions that may be included in a festival event permit, a festival event permit shall ensure that:

1. The event sponsor is responsible for all equipment set-up and take-down, litter and garbage clean-up and disposal at the event venue, and prompt removal of all event equipment and site clean-up at the end of the event.

2. No stakes, pegs, or other affixed hardware may be placed into city property or rights-of-way unless such activity is allowed under the festival event permit.

3. The sponsor of a festival event shall make provision for the free exercise of speech at the event. If the sponsor intends to impose any manner and location restrictions on the free exercise of speech at the event, the restrictions must be submitted in writing with the application and must include a statement as to how the free exercise of speech will be accommodated. Any manner and location restrictions imposed by the sponsor must comply with those clearly set forth in the permit.

4. Each festival event sponsor at which food is sold or served shall propose a method of notifying event vendors and attendees that only service animals are allowed in areas where food is prepared and served. Sponsors will be presumed to have provided adequate notice by prominently placing in or adjacent to all areas where food is sold or served signs which state “No animals other than service animals are allowed in food sales, serving, and preparing areas.”

C. The city may condition any event permit on a requirement that the permittee give written advance notice of the event and its probable impact to the general public and any property owners or tenants adjacent to the event location or any event venue.

D. Additional permits and licenses may be required for festival events to meet the conditions established by the permit or other city, county, and state codes, including food permits and business licenses for vendors.
