In processing an application for a permit required by this subchapter, the Village Manager, or his or her designee, shall issue a permit as provided for in this subchapter when, from a consideration of the application and from such other information as may be otherwise obtained, he or she finds that:
(A) The conduct of such activity will not unduly interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring property or unduly interfere with traffic or pedestrian movement or endanger public safety and that no streets will be completely closed to traffic for an unreasonable period of time. Adequate advance notice of any street closure shall be given in accordance with the provisions, if any, of the village ordinances, village rules, or policies;
(B) The conduct of such activity will not unduly interfere with normal governmental or village operations, threaten to result in damage or detriment to public property, or result in the village incurring costs or expenditures in either money or personnel not reimbursed in advance by the applicant;
(C) The activity does not propose to include obscene matter or an obscene performance and will not involve conduct in violation of state, local, or federal laws, rules or regulations, including Public Act 343 of 1984, being M.C.L.A. §§ 752.361 to 752.374;
(D) At the determination of the Village Manager or his or her designee as well as the Village Police Chief, Fire Chief, and/or Code Enforcement Officer, that the condition of such activity will not constitute a fire hazard or any other type of hazard and all properly safety precautions will be taken as determined by the heads of the aforementioned departments or their designees; and
(E) (1) The permit shall not authorize the production of a film that in any manner requires the use of property owned by or under the control of the village in violation of Public Act 84 of 2008, being M.C.L.A. §§ 123.1191 et seq., prohibiting the production of a film that includes obscene matter or an obscene performance or that requires that individually identifiable records be created and maintained for every performer provided in 18 U.S.C. § 2557.
(2) The decision of the Village Manager or his or her designee to issue, conditionally issue, or deny a permit shall be final unless appealed in writing within five working days of the decision by requesting a hearing before the next available meeting. Where conditions are imposed as prerequisite to the issuance of a permit and where a permit is denied, notice thereof shall be mailed to the applicant by certified mail within five days of such action. In the case of a permit denial, the reasons therefore shall be stated in the notice.
