Shoreline supports residents organizing a National Night Out event in their neighborhoods. Street closures require a permit. Permits are free for events co-sponsored by formal neighborhood associations. Contact Shoreline Permit Services at 206-801-2500 regarding permit requirements; please apply at least two weeks in advance.
When you apply for a permit or register your event you will receive:
- A free red check tablecloth (while supplies last);
- An event packet with basic information about Block Watch, emergency preparedness and neighborhood associations;
- Visits from Shoreline Police and Shoreline Fire (availability dependent on emergency calls).
