Title
Resolution to Approve Street Closings for the 2016 Rolling Sculpture Car Show - Friday, July 8, 2016
Memorandum
Attached for your consideration is a resolution to close the following streets for the Rolling Sculpture Car Show on Friday, July 8, 2016 from 7:00 A.M. to Midnight:
* S. Main Street between Huron Street and William Street
* Liberty Street between S. Ashley Street and S. Fifth Avenue
* Washington Street between S. Ashley Street and S. Fourth Avenue (except for traffic entering or exiting the Washington Street Parking Structure)
The sponsor, Main Street Area Association, also requests approval for the closing of E Washington Street between S. Division Street and S. Fourth Avenue from Noon to 3:30 PM. Closure of this section of E. Washington will provide a holding area and help alleviate traffic backups on Huron Street.
This event will be held to promote the Main Street business district as well as provide entertainment in the downtown area.
The sponsor will insure that access to the Washington Street parking structure is maintained and will coordinate the bagging of parking meters with the DDA and Republic Parking.
The sponsor agrees to obtain all necessary permits, to provide evidence of proper liability insurance as required, to comply with all City regulations governing the use of the streets and will reimburse the City for all event expenses.
Notification of the street closings will be provided through the City's website as well as through the Main Street Area Association communications.
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.
