Truckee Municipal Code Ch. 13.02 Special Uses in the Right-of-Way

For the purposes of this chapter, a special event is an activity as defined in Section 9.05.020 of this Code.

It is unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to make or cause to be made, an event within the street right-of-way which obstructs the normal flow of traffic, such as parades, foot, bicycle, or horse races done along the Town streets without first obtaining a permit subject to the provisions of Chapter 9.05 of this Code.

A written application for a permit shall be submitted on a form provided by the Director of Public Works prior to the commencement of the event. The Director of Public Works will confer with the Chief of Police and Fire Chief before initiating an event permit.

The event organizer shall plan the proposed event to minimize the impact on traffic and public use of the street right-of-way. The Director of Public Works may require additional enforcement personnel to staff road closures or specific traffic control. The event permit may be conditioned that the event organizer will provide traffic control staffing and equipment and will provide public notice to adjoining properties and along the proposed route.
