§ 130.23 PERMITS.
   (A)   In cases of emergency or other urgent public necessity, the City Administrator may issue a permit allowing activities described in § 130.22(A)(10) to take place at any hour. Emergency permits may not be issued for periods exceeding three days but may be renewed for successive periods not exceeding three days each for so long as the emergency continues.
   (B)   If, due to the location of the building or other site, the potential nature of the sound from the activity, the potential nature of the sound from vehicular traffic to and from the site and the loss or inconvenience that would result to any party in interest, the building official determines that the sleep, peace, quiet, comfort or repose of other persons will not be disturbed, he or she may issue a permit allowing activities described in § 130.22(A)(10) to take place between such hours from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. as he or she deems proper.

      (3)   The City Administrator may also suspend or revoke a permit if he or she finds that the sleep, peace, quiet, comfort or repose of any person is impaired by the activities carried on, or the restrictions or conditions contained in the permit have been violated.
      (4)   The decisions of the City Administrator to grant, suspend or revoke any permit may be appealed to the City Council, whose decision thereon shall be final.
   (D)   (1)   In addition to the activities allowed by § 130.22(A)(10), additions to, alteration or repair of any single or two-family dwelling structure may be performed without permit between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.

      (3)   The decision of the City Administrator may be appealed to the City Council, and its decision thereon shall be final.
