ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES

I understand that if the Board of Public Works and Safety grants my request, the following conditions and restrictions will apply:

1.) It is my responsibility to provide and maintain proof of liability insurance for this event at my expense.

2.) It is my responsibility to provide to the Board any additional licenses, permits and documentation for the event.

3.) I agree to abide by all terms and conditions of the Board’s policy governing walks, runs, parades or other similar events.

4.) I understand in consideration for approval by the Board for the use of City sidewalks/streets and/or use of City’s real or personal property for my event, the undersigned agrees and undertakes to hold the Civil City of Michigan City, Indiana, free and harmless from any liability loss, damages and expenses including attorney fees, which the Civil City of Michigan City may suffer or incur as a result of any claims or actions which may be made by any person, including a participant in said activity, arising out of the approval to use the sidewalks/streets and/or the City’s real or personal property indicated in Michigan City. I also understand that the closure of streets/sidewalks and/or use of City real or personal property does not exempt me or any participant from any federal, state, or local ordinance.

5.) In order to ensure public safety during the event barricades are required for a street closure. I understand it is my responsibility to erect the barricades prior to the event, and to dismantle them when the event concludes.

6.) Any violations of State law or Local Ordinances (i.e. loud music, public intoxication, or consuming alcohol on public right away) may result in the immediate termination of my permit by the Michigan City Police Department.

7.) I understand if my application requires the hiring of off-duty police officers, it is my responsibility to contract the required number of officers prior to the event.

8.) If a roadway is being closed to vehicular traffic, it is my responsibility to ensure that any property owners that are affected by the closure are notified, and that ingress and egress to their property is maintained.

I have read the above acknowledgement of responsibilities and I understand and agree to them. I also understand that this application may be denied based on any false or incomplete information.
