A permit shall be granted if the Inspector of Buildings finds, in regard to such proposed commercial timbering operation or clear-cutting, that:
(a) The requested operation and/or any earth removal or change of grade associated with such operation will not result in undue erosion or undue stream siltation and contiguous or adjacent properties will not be adversely affected.
(b) Adequate assurances have been provided by the applicant that all of the cordwood, branches, brush, rubble and refuse resulting from the requested operation will be removed from the premises or cut up, chipped or mulched and placed on the forest floor in such a way that no fire hazard will result therefrom.
(d) The bond required by Section 797.03 has been posted.
(e) The requested operation will not tend to create a nuisance.
If a permit is granted, the Inspector of Buildings shall specify the hours during which the requested operation may be conducted, designate the streets, if any, which may be used for the hauling of timber and provide for such other controls, such as the prevention of mud on streets, as are necessary to ensure a clean and safe timbering operation. He or she shall see that all of the provisions of these Codified Ordinances regarding use of City streets are complied with, and he or she will inspect the operation to ensure compliance with the permit and all conditions attached to it.
In granting such permit, the Inspector of Buildings shall also include as conditions any recommendations of the City Engineer pursuant to Section 797.04 and/or such other reasonable conditions as may be necessary to satisfy the criteria of this chapter and to protect the public peace, health, safety and welfare.
