Re: Public Parade Regulations -Ordinance
Recommendation: That the City Council hold a public hearing to discuss a
proposed parade ordinance, regarding public parade regulations that shall
apply to public property adjoining parade routes and staging areas. The
ordinance relates to section 12.72.070 of the Salt Lake City Code, 1988 as
amended relating to public parade regulations.
Availability of Funds: Not applicable.
Background and Discussion: This amendment will apply to public property
adjacent to the parade routes and the staging areas. The main provision
sets forth that no one shall be allowed until 8:00 P.M. of the day betore thy.
public parade to actually claim or atterr t =v=claim , reserve, or occupy, or
otherwise control public property, either in person or by the placement of
any object, such as, but not limited to, ropes, chairs, blankets, banners,
vehicles or barriers of any kind. Further, no person shall place, erect, use
or employ any tent or any other enclosed shelters, including, vehicles and
trailers on public property along the parade route or the staging areas at any
time. No person shall obstruct public sidewalks, paved portions of street, or
occupy any unsafe position or occupy position which may cause damage to public
or private property. All dogs except seeing eye dogs and dogs which are
actually apart of the parade shall be prohibited on public property along the
parade route and staging areas whether or not said dogs are leashed.
At the conclusion of the Days of 47 Parade in 1989, the Salt Lake City Police
Department formed a committee represented by the Traffic Division, Patrol
Division and Watch Conunand to formulate a number of recommendations regarding
problems they encountered with thousands of citizens who for several days
prior to the parade had established camp sites, held impromptu parties and
created immediate problems with families who were near by with children.
Unfortunately, much of the parade route under , the_above—described
circumstances has turned-into--a--par ii gi type-of atmosphere and does cause
some lawlessness and causes=rik to public safety. For these reasons the
attached ordinance has been developed. Additionally, the Salt Lake
City/County Health Department and the Days for '47 Committee have helped to
develop the attached ordinance and they concur with the 8:00 P.M. occupying
restrictions along the route.
