Special Events

The Village encourages the hosting of special events as a great way to provide attractions, activities and foster a sense of community. A special event permit application is required when a community event is located on public property or when it events held on private property may have a direct effect upon public property, traffic flow, public health, safety, or events which may require the use of special Village services. The permit application fee for a special event is $75.

For events not meeting the criteria of a special event, a temporary use permit may be required by the Village’s Development Services Department.
