The city does not require a special event permit for block parties, but this checklist provides some helpful hints to make these events more managable.  Residents planning a block party should consider the following items to secure a safe event and minimal disruption to other nearby homeowners.

Notify residents impacted by your event.

If you live in a subdivision with an HOA, make sure to notify them of your
      planned event.

Plan for additional parking spaces for residents or guests.

Plan for clean up after the event.

If closing of a residential public street is necessary, you will need to provide
      barricades or cones to block the street at either end, but leave room so emergency
      vehicles can get through. Do not block the roadway with vehicles or other immoveable
      objects.

Preferable, choose a location that will not disrupt normal traffic patterns. A
      cul-de-sac or other minor non-through street location will work best.

All consumption of spirituous liquor is limited to private property.

Inflatable play equipment (jumpies) must be located on private property and kept out
      of any public street or easement.

No outdoor amplified music beyond 10:00 pm.
