The Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services (DPS) Podcast episode, “Special Events,” focuses on the permitting process for carnivals, fairs, festivals, fireworks displays, sporting events and more. DPS Customer Support and Outreach (CSO) Division Chief Gail Lucas hosts the podcast, and she is joined by DPS Manager Chris Allen for a 15-minute discussion about when a special permit is needed for public events. Their discussion covers how the permitting process works from applications to inspections, the role of zoning, why special event permits are important for safety and how far in advance you should apply for permits before the event. Are you planning a special event?
