A copy of the application, with endorsement thereon, shall be mailed or delivered immediately to the applicant, and the signed original retained by the city clerk. An application approved in this manner shall constitute an alcohol beverage catering permit.
B. The chief of police shall run a background check of the applicant and shall verify compliance with the provisions set forth in this chapter.

D. The chief of police and the fire chief may, upon good cause shown, require different conditions, terms, or a reduction in the number of requested dates or times for a catering permit as determined reasonable to carry out the policies of the city, which include protection of the health, safety and welfare of the public, or to prevent an unlawful disturbance or nuisance. Such conditions may include execution of an indemnification agreement; posting of appropriate signs; and hiring at the applicant's expense of additional bonded security personnel.
