§ 12.64.291. Park use permit for special events.  


Latest version.
  • Any person applying for a park use permit for a special event shall file an application for such permit with the PRCS Central Reservations Unit not less than ninety (90) days nor more than eleven (11) months prior to the proposed use of said park. The Director may waive the ninety (90) day period if the applicant waives all appeal rights.

    In addition to applying for a park use permit, the applicant must apply for a special event permit with the Oakland Police Department for approval by the Chief of Police or his designee pursuant to the requirements enumerated in Chapter 9.52 of Title 9 of the Oakland Municipal Code. However, the Chief of Police, in consultation with the Director of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services or his or her authorized representative, shall retain the authority to delegate the issuance of special event permits for certain routine events in city parks not likely to result in impacts on the public safety and welfare to the PRCS Central Reservations Unit.

    Should the Chief of Police delegate the issuance of OPD special event permits to the Director of PRCS pursuant to this subsection, the Director shall cause PRCS to notify the Oakland Police Department of the issuance of any such permit at least ten (10) working days before the event commences.
