Special Events and Park Reservation Policy

It is the policy of the City of Kirksville to make City parks, lakes, streets, and other facilities available to its citizens within the rules and regulations governing such facilities. In order to properly plan and organize certain activities it is sometimes necessary and beneficial for the public to be able to reserve a park facility, schedule parade routes, and to meet with the City in advance of a special event to address special needs. The following regulations and procedures have been formulated to manage multiple and diverse demands for use of park and open space facilities.
