It is recognized that it may be in accordance
with the purpose of this chapter to permit temporary activities for
a limited period of time, which activities may be prohibited by other
provisions of this chapter. If such uses are of such a nature and
are so located that, at the time of petition of special exception,
they will in no way exert a detrimental effect upon the uses of land
and activities normally permitted in the zoning district, or contribute
materially to the welfare of the Borough, particularly in a state
of emergency, under conditions peculiar to the time and place involved,
then the Zoning Hearing Board may, subject to all regulations for
the issuance of special exception elsewhere specified, direct the
Zoning Officer to issue a permit for a period of time, as designated
by the Zoning Hearing Board. In no case shall the temporary use be
permitted to continue beyond the minimum time necessary to alleviate
the applicant's hardship.
Zoning permits or certificates of zoning compliance issued on the basis of plans and applications approved by the Zoning Officer authorize only the use, arrangement, and construction set forth in such approved plans and applications. Use, arrangement, or construction at variance with that authorized shall be deemed violation of this chapter, and punishable as provided by Article
XIII hereof.
