12.24.060 Issuance of permit.

A. The city manager shall issue a park permit to an applicant upon a finding that the application is in proper form and upon an additional finding that the permittee has made adequate arrangements to comply with all of the conditions of the permit and with all of the provisions of this chapter and Chapter 12.28.
B. In reviewing an application under this section, the city manager shall consider the following conditions and standards:
1. The size of the park or park area and any specialized purpose for which it is normally used, or for which specialized facilities have been provided;
2. The location of the park and the character of the area surrounding it;
3. The anticipated size of the proposed use and event;
4. The noise expected and its impact upon adjacent property;
5. Policing problems that may arise from the intended use;
6. The effect of the intended use upon the adjacent area and its occupants;
7. Whether there is a demand for permits in the park that exceeds the capacity of the park, and, if so, whether the applicant has been granted any other permit for that park for any date or period in the same calendar year.
C. Under the conditions set forth in subsection B of this section, if the city manager finds that the requested use would create a substantial burden in maintaining and policing the park facility or maintaining normal quiet in the area adjacent to or near the park he or she may deny the application or he or she may impose restrictions upon the permit or issue a permit for a different date, time or park area so as to alleviate such burden.
