Provo lists do's and don'ts for rally organizers
Participants may not interfere with pedestrians or vehicular traffic. If people do not stop to listen, protesters and demonstrators may not insist that they do so.
Participants may not obstruct the free passage of pedestrians or vehicles or block any driveway, entrance or exit.
If the gathering anticipates closing public access to a street or sidewalk, the city requires an outside event permit for which organizers may apply at the Provo Police Department.
If organizers are anticipating more than 300 participants for the event, state law requires that organizers consult the Utah County Health Department. They may require organizers to secure a mass gathering permit or a large public assembly license. Some large public assemblies may also require a city license depending on the duration of the event and the anticipated number of participants.
Many city parks are adjacent to public schools and neighborhoods. Those participating in protests and demonstrations should work to minimize any impact on schools or neighboring residences.
Whether the areas impacted by a rally, protest, demonstration or march are on public or private property, organizers and participants are responsible for leaving those areas clean and for removing all signs, sticks, leaflets or candles.
All participants must abide by all pertinent local, state and federal ordinances and laws while conducting the rally event, including Provo City's noise ordinance, park use regulations and regulations related to disturbances at public schools and all should cooperate with law enforcement personnel in securing everyone's safety.
