Planning Director Authority. The Planning Director may modify the submittal requirements as deemed appropriate to achieve the purpose stated above. In addition, because each temporary encampment has unique characteristics, including but not limited to size, duration, uses, number of occupants and composition, the Director shall have the authority to impose conditions to the issuance of the permit for temporary encampments to mitigate effects on the community upon finding that said effects are materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity. Conditions, if imposed, must relate to findings by the Director, and must be calculated to minimize nuisance generating features in matters of noise, waste, air quality, unsightliness, traffic, physical hazards and other similar matters that the temporary encampment may have on the area in which it is located.
In cases where the application for a temporary encampment does not meet the requirements and standards of this chapter or adequate mitigation may not be feasible or possible, the Director shall deny issuance of a temporary encampment permit.
