SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM 11.B. - REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING OF OCTOBER 15, 2013
ORDINANCE NO. 27-13
ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION
Revisions to the Waiver and Assemblies sections of the Code of Ordinances in order to make reference
to the City's Special Event Policy.
BACKGROUND
The City has a special event policy that sets forth the guidelines governing special event requests.
When some special events are requested, certain waivers are requested along with the special event.
Normally these waivers are presented to the Commission for approval along with the special event
application. In most cases the waivers requested can be waived through the special event application
process (such as the noise ordinance), however, there are occasions where the producer of the special
event, which in some cases would be the City, would need to request a waiver where the process
outlined in Section 30.15 of the Code of Ordinances must be followed (i.e. to allow fireworks on the
beach). This process involves publication in a newspaper ten (10) days prior to the matter being heard
by the Commission. The proposed ordinance would allow the City Manager to approve special events,
pursuant to our policy, and the ability to approve the waivers, if any, associated with the event. The
proposed ordinance also requires a special event permit for any gathering of twenty -five (25) persons or
more and adopts the special event policy by reference.
RECOMMENDATION
Recommend Approval.

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT /SPECIAL EVENT POLICES AND PROCEDURES
ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION
The item before Commission is to approve proposed amendments to the Special Event
Policies and Procedures.
BACKGROUND
Attached is a copy of the Special Event Policies and Procedures with amended language
crossed out and underscored.
The primary reason for the amendments to the Special Event Policies and Procedures are to
reflect changes approved in Ordinance No. 27 -13 which clarifies the process for approving
waivers for Special Events.
The amendments allow the City Manager to approve waivers to the Land Development
Regulations as well as approve Special Event permits, with the exception of new major events
(in which City are costs over $12,000). In addition, it allows the fees for a City of Delray Beach
public school event to be waived up to $1,500 (minor event) per direction at the
Commission meetings held on October 1, 2013 and October 8, 2013.
These amendments will reduce costs and administrative processing for staff and event
producers.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments to the Special Event Policies and
Procedures.
