FAIR GENERAL MANAGER - COMMUNITY SERVICES SUBJECT MEETING ON FEBRUARY 26,2007 ANNUAL REVIEW 2007 SPECIAL EVENTS POLICIES AND PROCEDURES MANUAL II RECOMMENDATION II That, on the recommendation of the General Manager - Community Services, the 2007 Special Events Policies and Procedures Manual attached as Appendix B, BE APPROVED noting that Appendix A identifies revision from the approved 2006 Special Events Policies and Procedures Manual. BACKGROUND The Special Events Policies and Procedures Manual was established in 1993 to facilitate the operation of major special events and festivals in London. The Policy provides organizations with essential information related to the requirements of the City for different types of events as well as defines the roles that various Civic Departments play in facilitating events. It addresses issues such as the use of City-owned lands, noise, admission to parks, fees, parking, insurance for events, and use of alcohol. The Policy is reviewed and revised each year with input from staff, the community and event organizers. The 2006 Special Events Policies and Procedures Manual was approved by Council in April of 2006. In 2006 London played host to more than 100 special events attracting hundreds of thousands of Londoners and visitors and contributing positively to the local economy. Policy Review Process Each year, a full review of the Policies and Procedures Manual is undertaken by the Special Events Co-ordinating Committee which consists of staff from Community Services (Chair), Environmental Services, Fire Prevention, London Police, Tourism London, City Clerk's, Planning and Development, Middlesex-London Health Unit, Legal Services, Technical Safety and Standards Authority, and SOCAN. Revisions or items for consideration are forwarded to the Committee for discussion. Recommendations regarding changes are then forwarded to both a public participation meeting and a meeting of event operators for further review. A public participation meeting was held on November 7, 2006, attended by representatives from Oakridge-Hazelden Ratepayers Association, Blackfriars Community Association. The recommended changes to the Policies and Procedures Manual were accepted by the public participants. On November 21,2006, all Special Event operators were invited to attend a meeting to review the proposed changes to the Manual and to get their input on how changes will affect their events. Three operators attended this meeting and were accepting of the recommended changes.
