Street Closure Request Form

  1. INSTRUCTIONS
  2. 1. All Street Closure Applications must be received 7 days before the next City Council meeting.
    Every street closure request is considered by the City Council. Complete Street Closure Applications must be received by Staff 7 days prior to City Council meetings to ensure the Application is placed on to the agenda. City Council meetings occur on the first and third Monday of each month, unless the meeting day is a holiday, in which case the Council meeting occurs the following day.
  3. 2. If your event will generate excessive noise or will be serving alcohol additional permits are required.
    This application only covers Street Closures. A Permit to Exceed Allowable Noise Levels and/or a Special Daily Malt Beverage and/or Wine License are required separately. These permits are required 30 days before an event so please plan accordingly.
  4. 3. If your event occurs after business hours or over the weekend, you may be required to set up and take down barricades.
    In order to reduce overtime costs, we may ask that you meet with City Staff during work hours where you will receive the traffic barricades and instructions on how to set them up properly. After your event you will be asked to place the barricades in an agreed upon location where City Staff will pick them up at a later time.
  5. 4. Please request the minimum street closure needed for your event.
    Street closures can make for fun events for those involved but can be an inconvenience for others. Please be considerate and request the smallest closure needed to hold your event.
  6. 5. You are required to notify all properties that your closure will affect.
    In order to help those affected by your Street Closure Request plan ahead, you must notify all properties affected by your closure either in writing or verbally 24 hours in advance of the City Council meeting when your request will be considered.
  7. 6. Communicating with City Staff before you submit an application is encouraged.
    If you have any questions about the Street Closure Request process or need help filling out the Application, please call us at (605) 677-7050. Additionally, a phone number must be provided that can be accessible 24 hours prior to and for the duration of the event.

    On the Application we will ask for your plans to clean up after the event.
