BACKGROUND:

Marquette Properties and Water Street property owners will host the 4th Annual Water Street Long Table Dinner on Sunday, September 22, 2024, from 5:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.  The dinner is a fundraiser for the West Suburban Food Pantry and will be capped at 200 attendees.  

 

DISCUSSION:

All businesses on Water Street will be participating in this event and will not alter normal Sunday hours.

 

The general public will be able to gain access to the Riverwalk, as well as individual businesses, from the Riverwalk side of Water Street and all eventgoers will be required to wear wristbands for identification.

 

Specific temporary traffic control information for the Water Street Long Table Dinner is depicted on the attached map and ordinance.  The event streets will be closed beginning at 12:00 p.m. on Sunday, September 22, 2024, and will open to vehicular traffic with the removal of the No Parking/Tow Zone signs at approximately 11:00 p.m., or as soon as the Naperville Police Department determines it appropriate based on public safety. 

 

Tables will be placed on Water Street for a formal sit-down dinner, but will allow enough space for emergency vehicles to access the area if necessary. 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

The event organizers will be billed for all City services required to support this event.
