    The conduct of such parade will not adversely affect or interfere with the movement of firefighting equipment en route to a fire.

    The conduct of the parade is not reasonably likely to cause injury to persons or property, to provoke disorderly conduct or to create a disturbance.

    (6)

    The parade is scheduled to move from its point of origin to its point of termination expeditiously and without unreasonable delays en route.

    (7)

    The parade is not to be held for the sole purpose of advertising any product, goods or event and is not designed to be held purely for private profit.

    (8)

    The parade will not substantially interfere with any other parade for which a permit has already been granted.

    (9)

    The applicant has provided for services of the number and type of parade monitors that the chief of police considers reasonably necessary to ensure that the parade will be conducted in conformity with the parade permit.

    (10)

    The applicant has not materially misrepresented any facts or information set forth in the application for a parade permit.

    (11)

    The applicant has furnished proof that permits or permission have been obtained from the appropriate authorities if the assembly or disbanding locations or the route of march of the parade encroach upon, occupy or traverse any area within the jurisdiction of the federal, state or local government.
