   (B)   Notice of tentative approval.
      (1)   In the case of permits for additional sound amplification pursuant to § 94.06(A)(1) above, if the permit is tentatively approved, the applicant shall be responsible for mailing or otherwise delivering to the occupants of each property within a 1,000-foot radius of the property or facility for which the permit has been granted, as shown on the county tax maps, a notice on a form provided by the Noise Control Officer showing the date and hours of the event.
      (2)   The notice shall be delivered at least 72 hours in advance of the event. The permit will not be approved and issued by the town until the applicant submits an affidavit to the Noise Control Officer confirming that the notices have actually been mailed or otherwise delivered.
   (C)   Number of hours.
      (1)   In the case of excess amplification under § 94.06(A)(1) above, no permits shall be issued which shall have the effect of allowing more than 20 hours of excess amplification per year at any place of public entertainment or ten hours of excess amplification at any other location.
      (2)   Permits shall be tentatively approved and subsequently granted by the Noise Control Officer in the order of receipt unless permits for 20 or more hours have previously been issued for the same or other locations within a 1,000-foot radius of the facility in the same calendar year, in which event the applicant shall elect whether to limit his or her request so as to keep the year's accumulated hours of excess amplification in that location between 20 hours or select another location.

      (2)   The Town Clerk shall have discretion to grant an exceptional permit waiving locational, time and/or db(A) requirements, upon the determination of the Town Manager that the applicant has made a substantial showing of legal entitlement. Any such exception permit shall be promptly reported to the Town Board.
