Special Event Permits


On April 13, 2010 the Board of Trustees passed Ordinance 3, Series 2010  "An ordinance of the Board of Trustees for the Town of Buena Vista, Colorado, repealing and reenacting Article VI of Chapter 11 and enacting a new Article VII of Chapter 11 of the Buena Vista Municipal Code regarding the use of public places and special events in public places." The ordinance will be enforced starting June 1, 2010. This ordinance, in part, requires a permit for any event held on public property with 200 or more participants.   


The fee for this permit is $50. This fee attempts to off set some of the cost of staff review of the event application to ensure public safety and health measures are being met. If you also need to reserve a park or close a street, fees for these items will be in addition to the $50, Special Event Permit fee. The fees for the park and street closure go towards maintenance of the parks and the cost of staff time for setting up the street barricades. To maximize your time, you will only need to fill out but one for for all these activities.
