B. 
After review of the application and all applicable, relevant circumstances which might impact upon or be impacted by the proposed large event, the Police Chief, Fire Marshal and other Borough officials may recommend conditions on the large event based on the relevant circumstances of the specific proposed large event, which conditions would safeguard the health, safety and welfare of the Borough residents or the attendees of the large event or would ensure compliance with other regulations of the Borough Code.

An application will be denied if, in the sole opinion of the Borough Council, the event would adversely affect the health, safety and welfare of the community or would violate any provision of the Borough Code.

An application will be reviewed and returned to the applicant within five business days from the date of the Council meeting at which the Council either approves the proposed large event or denies the proposed large event.

Payment shall be due within 30 days of the final billing by the Borough, for services rendered.
F. 
The applicant will be required to supply a certificate of insurance naming the Borough of Tullytown as an additional insured, not less than five business days before the event. Limits of coverage will be set by the Borough of Tullytown at the time the application is approved.
The following events are exempt from the need to file an application for a large event but are not exempt from any other provisions of the Borough Code:

E. 
Athletic activities held on the property of an educational institution as part of the institution's annual or seasonal athletic program.
The Borough of Tullytown may revoke permission to sponsor a large event, either prior to or during a large event, if the Borough determines that the application for the large event was fraudulent or the large event fails to meet the conditions set by the Borough Council or the large event adversely affects the health, safety or welfare of the community. If a revocation of permission order is issued by Tullytown Borough, the sponsor of the large event must cease operations immediately. Failure to do so may result in the issuance of appropriate citations to the sponsor of the large event and others responsible for its operation.
Conducting a large event without first obtaining written permission from Tullytown Borough or after notice to terminate same for violation of the terms of the approval shall constitute a violation of this chapter. Upon conviction, the sentence shall be to pay a fine not in excess of $600, together with costs of prosecution. Every day that a violation of this chapter continues shall constitute a separate offense.
