Are you planning a block party in your neighborhood? A block party is a great way to celebrate and encourage stronger communities. To support that the City can help you close the road during your party.
Determine the day you and your neighbors want to close the road for a party. Remember, block parties must begin during daylight hours and end before sunset.
Closing the road can be an inconvenience, so we ask that you get permission from the majority of your neighbors to have your party. The City needs to see written permission from at least 51% of the households on your block to close the road.
Be prepared to pay a non-refundable $20 processing fee. Once you have collected your signatures, you can apply for the permit online.

We will notify you within 4 business days when a decision is made. If approved, the City will deliver the barricades (road closure signs) you need before your party.
On the day of the party, put out the barricades to close the road. After the party, remove the barricades and return them to where they were dropped off by the City.
