City approves permits for march, Jefferson High marching band event and 2025 Christmas parade with new route
Summary
Council approved permits for a Greater Lafayette Indivisible march, an all‑day Jefferson High School marching band event and the 2025 Christmas parade with a new route and specified street closures.
Representatives presented three special event permit requests. Lisa Dunham said she was representing Greater Lafayette Indivisible and requested a march around the courthouse on Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m.; city staff and police had coordinated with the organizers and the council approved the permit by voice vote.
The council also approved an annual Jefferson High School marching band event scheduled the same day with a parking request on Second Street from Gregory Street to Sweetbriar Court for the staging window; the request was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Molly Wells of Greater Lafayette Commerce requested approval for the 2025 Christmas parade street closures and staging on Dec. 6 and told the council the route had been moved this year. The requested no‑parking and closures include multiple segments (detailed in the meeting packet) and an earlier start time of about 5 p.m. for the parade route; the council approved the closures by voice vote. The transcript lists the streets and staging windows presented but does not include a printed map in the excerpt.
