No person, firm or corporation shall construct, install, use or maintain a temporary or movable tent or similar type structure, as the word "structure" is defined in Chapter
197, Zoning, of the Code of the Village of Westhampton Beach, unless a permit therefor has been issued.
[Amended 8-8-1994 by L.L.

No more than three permits may be issued for the same property in any
calendar year.
In commercial establishments, access to the area covered by the tent
or other similar type structures must be by way of the main entrance.

167-4 and
167-5 with respect to a prior permit issued within a calendar year.
B. There is outstanding against the property for which a
tent permit has been requested any violation of any law affecting health or
safety.

Any person found guilty of violating the provisions of this chapter
shall be guilty of a violation and subject to a fine not to exceed $250.
In addition to any other remedy provided for herein, proceedings may
be instituted to enjoin any unlawful construction, installation, use or maintenance
of a temporary or movable tent or similar type structure.
