A temporary use established under the provisions of this Chapter shall conform to the following standards and requirements:

(1) Any structure requiring sanitary facilities by building, fire, health, or other similar codes shall be located on the same lot as a host structure unless independent water and sewer service is provided to the temporary structure. Where such codes require sanitary facilities, they may be provided by a host structure; provided, that there is:

(a) No indoor seating of patrons;

(b) Written evidence that a host structure will provide permanent sanitary facilities for any employees and/or customers and that such facilities are conveniently located not more than three hundred (300) feet from the structure and will be accessible during all periods of operation of the use; and

(c) Written evidence from the City/County Health Department that all food will be prepared and delivered from an approved commissary, that all waste resulting from the operation of the use will be properly disposed, and that food prepared on the premises will meet all health code requirements.

(2) The minimum required parking shall be two (2) spaces except that a reasonable number of additional parking places may be required. Such parking shall not have the effect of decreasing any existing parking that is required for any other use existing on the site. All parking shall meet the standards for off-street parking as specified in Chapter 14.37, Provo City Code.

(3) The layout of the proposed use shall be compatible with the access, parking, circulation, and other significant elements of any other uses or structures existing on the site.

(4) All structures shall be securely anchored to the ground at not less than four (4) points as directed by the Chief Building Official.

(5) The right to occupy the site shall be secured by a written agreement with the owner of the parcel and the owner of any host structures. Said agreement shall address the question of use of restroom facilities by employees, responsibility for maintenance, and restoration of the site upon termination of the use. A copy of the proposed agreement shall be part of the application.

(6) Approval for each temporary use permit shall bear an expiration date based upon the nature of the use. In no case shall approval be given for a period exceeding thirty (30) days except for farmers’ markets and shaved ice stands. All temporary structures shall be removed within fifteen (15) days of the temporary use being closed or the permit expiring, whichever occurs first.

(7) The landowner of the parcel shall provide a cash bond for the restoration of the site of said use to its original condition, including cleanup, replacement of facilities, and removal of any structures according to the following schedule:

(a) Circus, carnival, or related uses: one thousand dollars ($1,000.00).

(b) All other temporary uses: three hundred dollars ($300.00).
