A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
ESTABLISHING SPECIAL ZONES FOR STREET PERFORMERS AND
PERSONS, INCLUDING VENDORS, UTILIZING A TABLE OR CART
FOR DISPLAYING OR DISTRIBUTING GOODS, WRITTEN MATERIALS,
MERCHANDISE, FOOD, OR OTHER ITEMS ON THE
THIRD STREET PROMENADE
WHEREAS, the Third Street Promenade is a three-block-long portion of a public
street which the City has closed to all but emergency vehicular traffic and improved with
plants, statuary, fountains, and lighting to create an attractive, entertainment-oriented
pedestrian mall in order to revitalize the downtown business district; and
WHEREAS, except for its heavily traveled cross streets and certain narrow
alleyways, the Promenade is walled in on both sides by two and three story structures; and
WHEREAS, emergency vehicle access to the Promenade is by way of a narrow
single lane that runs down the center of the Promenade or by way of the narrow but heavily
utilized alleys behind the buildings which line the Promenade; and
WHEREAS, the Promenade has become a location that attracts both regional and
international visitors; and
1
WHEREAS, for purposes of preserving public safety in the event of an emergency,
the City's Fire Marshal has evaluated the Promenade as an "outdoor enclosure" and has
calculated the maximum occupancy load as approximately 5000 persons per block; and
WHEREAS, in recent years, the huge crowds attracted to the Promenade have
often exceeded this load capacity; and
WHEREAS, this number does not include the thousand of people inside the many
theaters, restaurants, and retail establishments who would flood onto the Promenade in
an emergency; and
WHEREAS, the City has established designated performance zones for street
performances and vendors on the Promenade since November 1993,
NOW, THEREFORE THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City hereby designates permitted zones for street performers and
persons, including vendors, utilizing a table or cart for displaying or distributing goods,
written materials, merchandise, food or other items on the Third Street Promenade as
reflected in Exhibit A to this Resolution.
SECTION 2. The City Council hereby repeals Resolution Number 9205 (CCS).

SECTION 3. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution and the
same shall be in full force and effect upon its adoption.
