The City Manager is authorized to grant an alternative permit specifying a date, time or route different from that contained in the application. The alternative permit is valid only upon the filing by the applicant with the City Manager or his designee of a written acceptance of the alternative permit. An alternative permit is void if not accepted in the manner prescribed in this section within three working days after its issuance. An alternative permit shall conform to the requirements of and shall have the effect of a parade or special event permit under this division.
