Summary
City staff said the Market on Fifth — a weekly farmers market organized by Propagate Social House and CoPacking USA — will run Fridays from September through July with street closure, vendor tents, food trucks and no public alcohol sales outside restaurants.
City staff presented details of a renewed special-event agreement for Market on Fifth, a farmers market organized by Propagate Social House and CoPacking USA, at the Development Review Committee meeting on Sept. 10.
A presenter described the Market on Fifth as scheduled to run every Friday from September through July, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., on Fifth Street. The organizers expect about 200 attendees per event, with food trucks, vendors and 10-by-10 vendor tents. The setup will begin at 4:30 p.m. and breakdown at 9 p.m., the presenter said.
The presenter said the agreement had been renewed with the city and that the event will use a street closure on Fifth Street between Park and Central and parking in a public lot; there will be APD staffing and a center lane left open for emergency vehicles. The presenter said there will be no alcohol sales in the street; any alcohol would be sold inside restaurants.
When asked, committee reviewers had no objections and no additional comments from police, public works, fire or building staff were recorded.
There was no formal vote recorded during the meeting; staff indicated the market was proceeding under the renewed agreement and that the organizers have already begun operations.
