Unless otherwise expressly stated, the following terms shall,
for the purposes of this chapter, have the meanings set forth below:
CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION
An organization as defined in New York State Executive Law
§ 171-a, including but not limited to not-for-profit corporations.
Such charitable organizations shall provide services or funds that
benefit residents of the Village of Sag Harbor.
PERSON
Any individual, firm, partnership, association, corporation,
company or organization of any kind, including a charitable, religious,
membership, hospital or not-for-profit corporation.
SPECIAL EVENT
Any social occasion or activity whether occurring on public
or private property, having more than 75 persons in attendance, private,
by invitation only or open to the public, conducted outdoors, with
or without an admission fee or donation and held on a one-time or
occasional basis, including, but not limited to, carnivals, circuses,
fairs, bazaars and outdoor shows, horse shows or exhibitions, concerts,
parties of any type, road rallies and parades. A special event permit
will be required regardless of the number of expected persons, where
the proposed event is to walk, run, or bike on any public street or
road or will require a road closure. The provisions of this chapter
apply to all waters or waterways in the Village and to all waters
or waterways bordering the Village to a distance of 1,500 feet from
the shore, except as otherwise shown on the chart. Said chart is on
file in the Village Office.
[Amended 7-10-2012 by L.L. No. 4-2012]
The application for a permit shall be accompanied by an application
fee in amount(s) established by resolution of the Village Board from
time to time and paid by applicant to the Village Administrator. Application
fees shall be deposited into a designated fund and shall be used solely
for those purposes. Application fees may be waived at any time by
and at the discretion of the Village Board.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this chapter,
the Village Board may waive or modify any of the requirements set
forth herein. In addition, if the Village Administrator, in conjunction
with at least two members of the Village Board, determines that a
special event will have a minimal impact upon the Village, a special
event permit may be issued without adherence to the foregoing procedures.
The provisions of this chapter are not exclusive, and applicants
must have and remain subject to all other applicable permits as may
be required, including but not limited to approvals for signs, banners,
tents and fireworks.
