HomeMy WebLinkAboutBack-Up from Law DeptSec 62-521. Temporary events in general.
(a)
(b)
Temporary events are those events of limited duration, open to a large number of
people. An event which would require a temporary event permit is an event which is
not one of the authorized uses of a property, and is an event which is not included as
a customary, primary, or ancillary use as identified in its certificate of use. Any use of
the property already included in the certificate of use for that property will not require
a separate event permit. For those properties that do not require certificates of use,
such as one- or two-family homes, it is an event that is over 100 people and impacts
traffic and access to the public right-of-way.

A temporary event can occur on private property, public property, or in a
combination of public and private properties that would require special review
by the city.
Temporary event permits will delineate all other temporary uses included for
the event, i.e., tents, temporary structures, barricades, fencing, and the like,
necessary for the event.
A temporary event permit would not be required for an event hosted by the
city on its property.
This section does not apply to a temporary sign or banner that is erected in
relation to a temporary or special event as contemplated by division 8 of this
article. Any such sign or banner must be permitted pursuant to division 8 of
this section and the criteria stated therein, in order to be erected.
Where a temporary event, including but not limited to, a carnival, party, block party,
neighborhood celebration event, festival, fair, farmer's market, outdoor sales, or
similar type of event is permissible on privately owned or public property by a
temporary event permit, the event shall be subject to the following:

(2)
Temporary events, which include mechanical rides, are permissible only on
Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and/or legal holidays, unless
other days are approved by the city commission. Otherwise, on all other
days, these events shall be permitted only at Watson Island, Virginia Key and
Bicentennial Park and the facilities and parking lots of Miami Marine Stadium,
and the Marlin's Stadium.
Temporary events, which do not include mechanical rides, are permissible on
any day of the week.
(3)
No more than two temporary events shall be permitted, each for a maximum
duration of two weeks, on private property per year. No more than ten
temporary events shall be permitted, each for a maximum durations of two
weeks, on public property per year, unless approved by the city commission.
(4)
The limitation on the number of temporary events may be waived by an
affirmative vote of the city commission for the calendar year affected. Each
permit, however, will still be limited to two weeks.
