A. Grounds for Denial. The director or park commission shall deny an application for a permit authorizing an event in a city park facility if the director or park commission determines that:
1. The person applying for the permit has failed to provide additional information requested by the director, or has otherwise failed to complete the application;
2. The information contained in the application, including any additional information requested by the director, is found to be false in any material respect;
3. The application is filed for an event at a location, date and time which would conflict or interfere with another event which was authorized or will be authorized by a permit previously filed;
4. The nature and size of the public event will require a diversion of city police officers to monitor the event which is so great in number as to cause police protection in the rest of the city to be seriously jeopardized; provided, however, that nothing herein authorizes the denial of a permit because of the need to protect persons conducting the event from the actions of others if reasonable permit conditions can be imposed to allow for adequate protection of persons conducting the event given the number of city police officers available to monitor the event;
5. The nature or size of the event threatens to cause significant damage to city park facility property, including, but not limited to, city park facility landscaping or natural vegetation; provided, however, that nothing herein authorizes the denial of a permit by reason of threatened damage to city park facility property caused by the actions of persons not conducting such event;
6. The location of the event will substantially interfere with construction or maintenance work previously scheduled to take place in or around the site of such event;
B. Notice of Denial. Where the director or park commission determines to deny an application for a permit authorizing an event in a city park facility, the director shall promptly cause a notice of such determination to be served on the permit applicant. In such notice, the director shall state the reasons for the determination not to approve a permit for the event proposed by the application and shall set forth the right of the applicant to appeal such determination in the manner provided for by Chapter 12R.02 of this title.
