Frequently Asked Questions

Q

How long before the event should I submit?

Submit 60-90 days in advance for permits to be processed. Simple events may need less time; complex events with street closures need more.

Q

What permits do I actually need?

Depends on your location and event. Contact your city/county permit office. Most public events need at least a general event permit; food service or alcohol adds requirements.

Q

How much should I budget for insurance?

Event liability insurance typically costs $300-2,000 depending on size and risk. Get a quote from your insurance broker once you've proposed the event.

Q

How do I find volunteers?

Post volunteer opportunities on your website and social media, reach out to community organizations, and include volunteer info in your proposal to show readiness.

Q

What if my proposal is rejected?

Ask for specific feedback. Address concerns in a revised proposal. Work with city/county staff to find solutions (different date, reduced scope, additional insurance).
