§ 7.24.020. Police presence at large gatherings—Second response—Fees.¶
When a peace officer determines that there is or will be a threat to the public peace, health, safety or general welfare from a gathering of persons at any premises, the person in charge of the premises and the person responsible for the event, or if either of those persons is a minor, then the parents or guardians of that minor, are jointly and severally liable for the cost of providing safety personnel (police officer or Sheriff's deputy) on special security assignment over and above the services normally provided by the department. The safety personnel utilized during a second response after the first warning, to control the threat to the public peace, health, safety or general welfare, are deemed to be on special security assignment over and above the services normally provided. The costs of such special security assignment may include minor damages to City property and/or injuries to City personnel. The City may recover the actual costs of all special security assignments from the person in charge of the premises and person responsible for the event. The City reserves its legal options to elect any other legal remedies when said costs or damage exceed $500.00.
