An individual or organization that is not exempt from the license requirements may apply for a special waiver through the community development office. The city manager or his designee shall have the authority to waive the license requirements for athletic sporting events and for other special events. In determining whether a special waiver should be granted, the city manager or his designee may consider traffic congestion, parking, environmental concerns, and impact of the event upon the neighboring area, and the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the city. If the special waiver is granted the waiver shall designate the date, time and duration of the event. The fact that a special waiver was previously granted for a similar event shall not be a factor to be considered in determining whether a special waiver should be granted on a subsequent occasion to the same or a different applicant.
