Process and required documentation for applying for a Special Event Permit with alcohol:
- Secure event insurance
- Most 501(c)3 organizations can secure event insurance through their General Liability insurer at no extra cost provided the event is aligned with their charitable purpose (a fundraiser, etc.)
- A alternate resource for event insurance: http://https://www.theeventhelper.com/
- If serving food or alcohol, you will be required to secure a one day permit from the Alameda County Department of Environmental Health: http://acgov.org/aceh/food/temp.htm
- If you are the only group serving food or alcohol, you do not need to fill out the Temporary Events Sponsor Application (you act essentially as your own sponsor)
- If other groups will be serving good or alcohol at your event, you must first fill out the Temporary Events Sponsor Application (http://acgov.org/aceh/food/TempEventSPONSOR-Application.pdf) and each vendor must submit a Temporary Events Food Booth Operator Application (http://acgov.org/aceh/food/TFF_Application_Booth.pdf)
- If you are a 501(c)3 organization you can apply for a Fee Exemption (http://acgov.org/aceh/food/AlCo-NON-PROFIT-FORM-for-TFF.pdf)
