SPECIAL EVENTS

FEES

Special events are important contributors to the quality of life for High Point citizens and are welcome activities in our community. The City of High Point is happy to assist organizations and groups in providing quality events. A special event is defined as a pre-planned event, whether publicly or privately sponsored, which is held on public property, including but not limited to parks, streets and/or sidewalks.

The costs of making such facilities available are generally recovered through fees collected for the specific event. However, the public interest is also served by reducing and/or waiving such fees for certain events that have direct community benefit to the population as a whole. Furthermore, to maintain public trust, procedures shall be established for the consistent, fair and prompt evaluation of such requests.

CATEGORIES OF EVENTS

Co-Sponsored: Co-Sponsored events are determined by the City Council and are events of general interest to the public which provide a special economic development benefit or advances the City's public image. The City will determine through the budget appropriation process the extent to which the event will be financially sponsored, either through direct appropriation or allocation of in-kind support. Any costs in excess of the support level determined by the City will be the responsibility of the other sponsoring organization(s). The City must be listed as a co-sponsor on printed materials/announcements.

Other Non-Profit Events (Charitable/Non-Profit groups, Civic/Community Groups): Permit fees and rental fees for City facilities will be charged at 50% of charges listed in the Comprehensive Fee Schedule. Rental fees for equipment and/or Public Safety personnel will be charged at regular rates.

For-Profit Events/Private Individuals or Groups: All fees associated with the event are the full and complete responsibility of the requesting party. Additionally, any organization or group which did not meet their obligation for a previously fee-waived or reduced event will not be eligible to receive a fee waiver or reduction for subsequent events.
