Residents may request permission to close a public street for a block party.  The street to be closed must be a non-primary road, appropriate signage must be posted to alert traffic of the closure, and the street closure cannot extend past 10:00 p.m.

Applications for Block Party Permits must be submitted to the Leesburg Police Department at least 30 days prior to the event and must be signed by 51% of the residents of the street to be closed.

Block Party Permit Application

Street Barricades

Once your block party permit is approved, the Streets Division will deliver barricades to your location one business day before the party (see photo at right). The block party permit holder is responsible for putting the barricades in place before the party and taking them down after the party (see photo below). Town staff will pick up the barricades the first business day after the party, from the same location where they were delivered.
