Notification of the street closings will be provided through the City's and Festifool/Fool Moon websites, and emails sent through the Main Street Area Association. Flyers will also be hand delivered to adjacent businesses one week before the event.
The sponsor will submit an application for approval from the State of Michigan Liquor Control Commission for temporary sales, service and consumption of alcoholic beverages in the defined areas pursuant to the M.L.C.C. regulations.
The event has been coordinated with all relevant City service areas for the purposes of traffic control and for the protection of the health and safety of the participants and the general public.
