Board approves State Street closure for Compass Park Campus parade on Sept. 7
Summary
The Board of Public Works and Safety approved closing State Street for the annual Compass Park Campus parade on Sept. 7, 2025, with police providing support though the organizer handles most traffic control.
The Board of Public Works and Safety voted unanimously to close a portion of State Street for the Compass Park Campus parade on Sept. 7, 2025, from 1:45 to 3:15 p.m. The board's motion passed after a member moved to approve the closure and was seconded; the vote was recorded as all in favor.
The closure request was described as an annual event that Compass Park Campus organizes and largely staffs for traffic control. Mayor Barnett said the campus "pretty much take[s] care of their own shutting the road down and watching safety," and that city police will provide assistance as needed.
Board members did not raise objections. The board recorded the motion and approved the closure during its new-business agenda.
The city will issue formal closure instructions and coordinate police support with the event organizer as is typical for road closures related to private campus parades.
