§ 3-13. Permits—Required; applications; issuance.

(a)

Any promotor or sponsor of a music or entertainment festival who will receive or potentially will receive financial benefit from the festival must obtain a permit for such festival from the board of supervisors or the county administrator.

(b)

A written permit application must be filed in duplicate with the county administrator, or his designee, at least 30 days prior to the date of such festival. Every applicant must attach to the application the plans, statements and other documents required by section 3-15. If the application does not contain the necessary plans, statements or documents required, the county administrator may refuse to accept such application for filing.

(c)

The board or county administrator shall act on a filed application within 30 days of filing and shall not issue a permit unless the requirements of this article are met. Each permit issued shall be in writing and mailed to the applicant at the address indicated in the application. Failure of the board or county administrator to take action within 30 days after a completed application is properly filed shall constitute approval of such application. Any permit issued by the county administrator is valid only until the date of the next scheduled board meeting.

(d)

This section does not apply to an entertainment or music festival in a facility managed by the county parks and recreation department, provided that a special events permit is obtained for such festival.
