§ 2111.041. Division of fire personnel.

In reviewing the application for a parade permit, the Director of Public Safety shall determine if personnel from the division of Fire are necessary to the safe conduct and operation of the parade. In making that determination, the Director of Public Safety shall consider the time, date, route and length of the parade; the likelihood of fires or explosions during the parade or the need for emergency and medical services; the nature and purpose of the parade; the anticipated attendance at the parade by both participants and observers; the number, type, and speed of vehicles in the parade; and the ability of the division of Fire to respond to a call for services from a location outside the parade route.

If the Director of Public Safety determines that division of Fire personnel are necessary to the safe conduct and operation of the parade, then the applicant for the parade permit shall be informed of the necessary number and cost of division of Fire personnel. The cost of the division of Fire personnel shall be the current standard hourly special duty rate for such personnel. The cost for each Fire division vehicle shall be a standard hourly rate prescribed by the Director of Public Safety. The applicant for the parade permit shall deposit the cost for such division of Fire personnel and vehicles with the City Treasurer at least forty eight (48) hours prior to the date requested for the parade.
