San Jose Municipal Code Part 1 Purpose

City hall is the primary location for the conduct of the city's business. The new city hall plaza was constructed to provide a site that would be an aesthetically pleasing area and which would conveniently allow access to and from city hall. The City enacts this chapter to, among other things, ensure the access to and unobstructed use of city hall, preserve the aesthetics of the city hall plaza, coordinate multiple uses of the limited plaza area, preserve and protect the plaza features, to prevent dangerous, unlawful or incompatible uses, and to ensure financial accountability for damage caused by an outdoor event.
