1. A Block Party Permit can be obtained from the Lansing Police Department located at
   2710 -170^th Street Lansing , IL .

   be signed by a minimum of 51% of the neighborhood.

   It is reasonable to assume that the 176^th block of Wentworth Avenue would not be 
   issued a permit to block the street.

   office on the Friday prior to the block party. Public Works closes at 3:00pm. The barricades

5. The barricades are to be returned on the Monday immediately after the block party, before 
   12:00pm (Noon)

   or live band is too loud or any other type of action is taken by the participants of the block 
   party that causes another to become alarmed or disturbed, the Lansing Police may request 
   that the alarming or disturbing action be stopped. Multiple police response may be cause 
   for a permit to be revoked by the duty Shift Commander or other officer and the block 
   party stopped.
