Access to Resources for Cultural Green Space
Access to resources for Cultural Green Space in our parks. Conduct an comprehensive assessment of different cultural groups using the space for special events.
Currently there is an on-going study issue (ESD 24-01) that is exploring ways to improve the special event permit process.
*The study issues have been proposed for future sponsorship
Toward the end of the calendar year, no later than October, boards and commissions will review the list of proposed study issues and officially vote on sponsorship for each individually listed study issue. Official sponsorship means that the study issue is approved for ranking with a majority vote of the board or commission. Staff will then prepare the sponsored study issue papers, including fiscal impact but not the staff recommendation.
