Full Breakdown
Sec. 050(7) of the Land Development Code names parades directly among the "temporary events" that need a permit from the planning department, alongside fairs, carnivals, rodeos, shows and races. Subsection (c) requires the sponsor to file an application "not less than 45 days prior to the start of the temporary event," and subsection (b) requires the sponsor to hold a temporary event permit before the event, coordinated with the city building and safety department, public works department, city manager's office, the county fire department, the city police department, and the county department of environmental health.
Subsection (h) sets substantive standards: all patron and guest parking must be provided on-site, or off-site/on-street only with city approval; vehicular access cannot create traffic conflicts on city streets; noise cannot exceed the city noise ordinance; the concentration of people, animals, structures or vehicles cannot interfere with emergency access; and temporary events, including parades, are limited to three days. Subsection (i) lets the city cap how many temporary events one location may host. Subsection (j) authorizes the city to require a bond or security to restore the site and reimburse unanticipated law enforcement or medical costs, plus liability insurance naming the city as an additional insured.
Once the planning department verifies the sponsor has cleared every listed department and agency, subsection (f) says the permit issues and the parade may proceed.
Violations & Fines
Sec. 120.01.050(7)(k) lets the city require the immediate closure of any nonexempt parade or temporary event that proceeds without a permit or that violates a condition imposed by the city or a reviewing agency. Because permits route through the police department, county fire and county environmental health as applicable, a parade lacking sign-off from any of those agencies can be shut down mid-route, and required bonds can be forfeited to cover cleanup or public-safety costs.
