(A) Applications for a special events permit shall be filed with the City Secretary at least 30 days prior to the start of the event. The time for filing an application for a permit authorizing any event may be waived if the City Manager determines that sufficient time remains to review, investigate, and act on the application in the manner required by this chapter. However, where an application for a permit is not filed at least 30 days prior to the start of the event, any right to appeal to the City Council shall be deemed waived if there is insufficient time for such appeal.
(B) Every application for a permit under this chapter shall be accompanied by a non-refundable application fee in an amount established by the City Council in the City Fee Schedule, which permit fee shall be used to defray the costs related to the issuance of such permit and which shall be in addition to such further and additional special event fees as may be imposed by this chapter.
