(A)
The city shall issue the permit authorizing the requested special event activity unless it finds that:
(1) The conduct of the activity will require the assignment of so many police officers that the remainder of the city cannot adequately be protected;
(2) The activity will interfere with the movement of emergency vehicles to such an extent that adequate police, fire, or other emergency services cannot be adequately provided throughout the city; or
(3) Allowing the activity to be held would constitute a clear and present danger to the public health or safety;
(4) The activity, if held at the time or location proposed, will cause an unreasonable and unwarranted disruption to vehicular or pedestrian traffic;
(5) The activity will work a severe hardship on property owners or property occupants near the special event location as a result of the denial of access to their properties or for other substantial reasons;
(6) The person in charge and/or the sponsor of the activity has failed to obtain or does not intend to obtain any and all necessary permits or licenses, including but not limited to building permits, privilege licenses, and alcohol permits, or the application is otherwise in violation of any provision of the Roxboro Code of Ordinances or other applicable law; or
(7) If permitted, the activity will conflict with any other activity previously permitted under this chapter by covering any part of substantially the same area or route during substantially the same time frame as allotted to the previously permitted activity.
(B) The city may attach any reasonable conditions to the issuance of a permit; and any special event conducted pursuant to a permit issued under this subchapter shall be conducted strictly in accordance with the terms of the permit, including any conditions attached to the permit.
