You or your organization may be planning a special event for your neighborhood, house of worship, civic organization, or club. The City of Richardson does require that you fill out a quick event request online form to ensure that your event meets all applicable codes and standards.

City staff from various departments and divisions will review your online submission to ensure you are placing signs in the right locations, that your tent structures are appropriately positioned and permitted, and that you are provided with any traffic support that you may require.

After filling out the event request online form you will receive confirmation that your event may proceed within two business days.

If you have any questions about the form or hosting a special event in Richardson, please call Community Services at 972-744-4166.

Types of special events that obtain approval:

• Church garage sales
• Company picnics
• School related events
