309.07 STANDARDS FOR ISSUANCE OF PERMIT.
(a) The Mayor, or his designee, shall issue a permit as provided for herein when, from a consideration of the application and from such other information as may otherwise be obtained, it is determined that:
(1) The conduct of the Parade or Public Assembly will not substantially interrupt the safe and orderly movement of other pedestrian or vehicular traffic contiguous to its route or location;
(2) The conduct of the Parade, or Public Assembly will not require the diversion of so great a number of police officers to properly police the line of movement and the areas contiguous thereto as to prevent normal police protection of the Municipality;
(3) The concentration of persons, animals, and vehicles at Public Assembly points of the Parade or Public Assembly will not unduly interfere with proper fire and police protection of, or ambulance service to, areas contiguous to such Public Assembly areas;
(4) The conduct of the Parade or Public Assembly is not reasonably likely to cause injury to persons or property;
(5) The Parade is scheduled to move from its point of origin to its point of termination expeditiously and without unreasonable delays en route;
(6) Adequate sanitation and other required health facilities are or will be made available in or adjacent to any Public Assembly areas;
(7) There are sufficient parking places near the site of the Parade or Public Assembly to accommodate the number of vehicles reasonably expected;
(9) Such Parade or Public Assembly is not for the primary purpose of advertising any product, goods or event that is primarily for private profit, and the Parade or Public Assembly itself is not primarily for profit. The prohibition against advertising any product, goods or event shall not apply to signs identifying organizations or sponsors furnishing or sponsoring exhibits or structures used in the Parade or Public Assembly;
(10) No Parade, Festival or Public Assembly permit application for the same time and location is already granted or has been received and will be granted;
(11) No Parade, Festival or Public Assembly permit application for the same time but different location is already granted or has been received and will be granted, and the police resources required for that prior Parade, Festival or Public Assembly are so great that in combination with the subsequent proposed application, the resulting deployment of police services would have an immediate and adverse effect upon the welfare and safety of persons and property; and
(12) No event is scheduled elsewhere in the Municipality where the police resources required for that event are so great that the deployment of police services for the proposed Parade or Public Assembly would have an immediate and adverse effect upon the welfare and safety of persons and property.
(b) Prior to approving or denying a permit the Mayor, or his designee, may require an applicant to attend a meeting to discuss matters affecting the issuance of the permit. Failure to attend such meeting shall be grounds for denial of the permit.
(c) The permit or any order accompanying it may prescribe reasonable time, place and manner conditions, including but not limited to the hours, the place of assembly and of dispersal, the location of participants or spectators and vendors or booths, the route of access, permitted parking, and the portions of Public Property which may be used or occupied.
(d) No permit shall be granted that allows for the erection or placement of any structure, whether permanent or temporary, on a street, sidewalk, or right-of-way unless advance approval for the erection or placement of the structure is obtained.
(e) No permit shall be issued when it is determined that the application contains any misrepresentation of material facts.
