Special Events
Insurance - All events being held in City-owned facilities by groups or individuals who are not part of the City organization must purchase general liability insurance for the event. The event holder can either purchase insurance through an outside insurance agency, or through the City's Tenant User Liability Insurance Program (TULIP). To obtain insurance through the City's TULIP, event holders must complete the Event Holder Questionnaire form and pay the necessary insurance premium to the Finance Department. Premium costs are based on a number of factors, including: type of event, duration of event, number in attendance, and whether alcohol will be served or sold at the event.
