Temporary
Use Permits
The
Village requires a Temporary Use Permit for the following
temporary activities: retail sales of Christmas trees or pumpkins,
grand openings or special events, assembly activities (e.g.,
carnivals, fairs, rodeos, sport events, concerts, and shows),
real estates sales offices and model homes, produce stands,
construction yards, offices, sheds, trailers, etc. Block parties
also require a permit; however they are exempt from paying
the application fee. PODs also required a permit. A permit
is also required for other temporary uses which, in the opinion
of the code official, are similar to the uses listed above.
Any use not listed is strictly forbidden.
The
cost of applying for a Temporary Use Permit is $65. Applications
for a Temporary Use Permit may be picked up in the Building
Division at the Village Hall or can be downloaded
(Temporary Use Permit). Garage sales are exempt and require
no fee or application; however, they are restricted in frequency
to not more than 2 three-day sales per year. Parking lot and
sidewalk sales are also exempt as long as the sale is operated
as part of the primary business on the lot. In other words,
a business can sell items outside their store, but another
entity selling items on the lot would need a permit.
Non-profit
(501(c)(3)) organizations are exempt from the application
fee, as well as the required deposit for the sale of Christmas
trees and pumpkins. Each temporary use has an associated maximum
duration permitted, and a letter of credit or cash deposit
is required to assure adequate clean-up. Finally, although
block parties require a permit, no application fee or clean-up
deposit is required. More information on block parties may
be found in the Resident Information section of this web site.
