The Fire Chief is hereby authorized to establish fire lanes on either public or private property upon finding that the following conditions exist:
(a) That a fire lane is necessary for safeguarding life and property from the hazards of fire and explosion, and for the use and occupancy of buildings, structures and adjacent property.
(b) That the fire lane is incident to a retail, commercial or manufacturing use or other use where it can reasonably be expected that the public will assemble in sufficient numbers to that the presence of the public and their motor vehicles, if not controlled, will interfere with the operation of fire-fighting equipment and personnel and the egress of occupants in case of fire.
