Original section ↗ · Link to this section

It is unlawful for any club, organization or similar group to hold any meeting, parade, demonstration or exhibition on the public streets without some responsible representative first securing a permit from the chief of police. No permit shall be issued by the city manager, or his/her designee, unless such activity will not unreasonably interfere with traffic and unless such representative shall agree to see to the immediate cleaning up of all litter which shall be left on the streets as a result of the activity. Furthermore, it is unlawful for any person obtaining such a permit to fail to carry out his agreement to immediately clean up the resulting litter.
