Activation Fees

Daily Fee Structure

The Street Activity Permit Office (SAPO) determines the event size based on square footage, expected attendance, and the overall impact on daily plaza operations. Please note, all activations employing the use of promotional vehicles or food trucks will result in a Large size determination from the Partnership. The approximate permittable square footage is 4,500 SF on the North Plaza and 3,875 SF on the South Plaza. SAPO fees are paid directly to the City. Partnership fees are used to manage, maintain, beautify, and program the Flatiron Public Plazas.
