SEC. 16.01. LONG-TERM TEMPORARY USES. (Amended by Ord. No. 173,268, Eff. 7/1/00, Oper. 7/1/00.) A. Authority of the Zoning Administrator. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code to the contrary, the Zoning Administrator shall have the authority to approve the use of a lot in any zone for the temporary use of property which will aid in the immediate restoration of an area adversely impacted by a severe fire, storm, earthquake, similar natural disaster, or a civil or military disturbance, and declared by the Governor as an emergency area if the Zoning Administrator finds: 1. That the nature and short duration of the proposed temporary use assures that the proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the character of development in the immediate neighborhood; 2. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the implementation of the General Plan or any applicable specific plan; and 3. That the proposed use will contribute in a positive fashion to the reconstruction and recovery of areas adversely impacted during the emergency. In making a determination pursuant to this section, the Zoning Administrator shall balance the public interest and benefit to be derived from the proposed temporary use against the degree, significance of, and temporary nature of the inconvenience to be caused in the area where the temporary use is located. The Zoning Administrator may promulgate regulations and guidelines as are necessary and proper to administer the provisions of this article. B. Conditions of Approval. In approving the location of any temporary use, the Zoning Administrator may impose those conditions the Zoning Administrator deems necessary to protect the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of nearby properties. The Zoning Administrator shall also require the posting of a completion bond, or other guarantee satisfactory to the Zoning Administrator, to cover the cost of the removal of any improvements made to a site or cleaning of the site after termination of the temporary authorized use. Furthermore, the Zoning Administrator shall require termination of the temporary use within one year from the date of the approval of the temporary use, the removal of all temporary improvements on the site, and the restoration of the site to a permitted use within a reasonable period of time determined by the Zoning Administrator.
