ITEM 3A 1 2/09/2016 Policy 5.1: Provide adequate parking to protect and support the economic vitality and diversity of Old Towne. 7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND In August 1997, Council approved a process allowing approval of special events /pageants that will close the plaza and adjacent public streets as a single action. The Council- approved criteria allows the Plaza to be closed for special events 20 days total, 12 of those are Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This request includes plaza closures of 9 days total, 7 of those are Fridays, Saturday and Sunday. Over the years of operating these types of events, a standardized plan for street closure, restroom location, fire safety protection and similar concerns has been established. The term, "plaza closure" means all of Glassell St. from Maple Ave. to Almond Ave., and all of Chapman Ave. from Grand St. to Lemon St. All of the sponsors, operators, and City staff are proficient at event logistics to ensure a safe and efficient event for both participants and visitors. This approval does not attempt to address the details or logistics of each event, as the department's staff or approved agreements cover all details. Other areas may be posted for No Parking for event preparation as needed. Orange Police will suspend enforcement of neighborhood permit parking restrictions for the whole day, without bagging the signs for each event. Current agreements are in place for both the annual Orange International Street Fair, Inc. and Plaza Rotary Club Car Show. For non -city events cash deposits will be required approximately 30 days prior to each event date. If deposits are not provided, the event will be canceled. Thirty days prior to the exact event, the promoter or sponsor shall obtain a special event permit from the Community Development Department.
