§ 17.520.005 PURPOSE.
This Chapter provides a process for reviewing proposed temporary uses, special events and temporary events to ensure that basic health, safety, and community welfare standards are met, while approving suitable temporary uses and special events, with the minimum necessary conditions or limitations consistent with the temporary nature of the activity. A Temporary Use Permit, Special Event Permit, or Temporary Event Permit allows short-term activities that might not meet the normal development or use standards of the applicable zoning district but may be considered acceptable because of their temporary nature. These activities are regulated to avoid incompatibility between the proposed activity and surrounding areas.
