This section is included in your selections.

A. Temporary public safety facilities include: (1) temporary stations for fire protection and police protection, and (2) temporary facilities to provide relief or assistance services to the public, or to provide services related to the administration or management of such relief or assistance services, in case of annexation or in times of natural disaster or other unforeseen emergency circumstances. The existence of a natural disaster or unforeseen emergency circumstances shall be determined by the City Manager.

B. For purposes of this section, a temporary public safety facility is a facility which terminates its operations not later than 24 months from the approval date. However, upon a request to extend the approval period filed not later than 30 days prior to expiration of the original or any subsequent approval period, the Director of the Development Services Department may grant the request and extend the approval of the facility for additional periods of up to 12 months per extension request or for the duration of the natural disaster or unforeseen emergency circumstances. Such approval may be conditioned by the Director pursuant to any of the provisions of this Land Use Code.

C. A temporary public safety facility is exempt from any otherwise applicable Conditional Use Permit, Design Review approval process or other discretionary land use approval process, and from the site development standards and other requirements of the Land Use Code; provided, that:

1. Application for approval of a temporary public safety facility shall be made to the Director of the Development Services Department. As a condition of approval of the facility or of approval of a request for a 12-month extension of the life of the temporary facility under subsection B of this section, the Director may require the facility to comply with such site development standards of the Land Use Code as are reasonably necessary to provide compatibility of the facility with surrounding uses and to minimize the impact of the facility on surrounding uses.

2. Nothing in this section shall exempt such a facility from permit requirements under applicable building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical and other similar codes. (Ord. 6676, 9-26-22, § 1; Ord. 5475, 10-20-03, § 9; Ord. 4600, 11-22-93, § 1)
