Las Vegas Municipal Code § 12.02.090

in effect

12.02.090 - Security plans. (A) As a follow-up to the security-related information that is included in a permit application pursuant to LVMC 12.02.050, the administrative services official may require the applicant to submit a comprehensive security plan to detail how order will be preserved and property protected in and around the location where the event is to be conducted. The security plan shall be based on the size, location, duration, time and date of the event; the expected service and consumption, if any, of alcoholic beverages; the number of streets and intersections blocked; and the need to detour or preempt vehicular or pedestrian travel and use of public rights-of-way. (B) Except as otherwise provided in, or determined pursuant to, Subsection (D), a required security plan must first be approved by Metro, and shall include the number and character of security personnel Metro determines necessary for the special event. The decision whether or not to approve a security plan under this Section shall be based on the considerations set forth in Subsection (A). (C) In the case of a security plan under this Section that includes the use of police officers of Metro: (1) Funds to engage the specified number of police officers, at an appropriate hourly rate for police officers, shall be deposited with Metro at least ten days prior to the date of an event. (2) Police officers engaged under this Subsection (C) shall be under the complete direction and control of Metro. (D) A special event producer may file a request for review concerning a decision by Metro under this Section in order to propose alternative security measures. Such a request must be filed with the administrative services official within five days after Metro's decision. The review will be conducted independently by each of the security review authorities. Alternative security measures may be approved and implemented if both security review authorities independently determine that such measures will provide equivalent or acceptable security for the event.
