The private group has been given exclusive rights to use that space for the designated time. It is, in effect, JUST like your own kitchen as noted above.
The point of the permit is, indeed, to make it lawful for them to use the space for their purpose, and to exclude whomever they may designate.
NO ONE is getting into that permitted assembly in a public space without the consent of the permit holder. In fact, the police are there to enforce the right conveyed by the permit.
The police are indeed there to ensure the SAFETY of the permit holders in the exercise of the rights conveyed by the permit.
