§ 17.04.700. Races and special events—Permit requirements.

A.

A person shall not engage or participate in a boat race, regatta, demonstration, exhibition or other special event unless so authorized by permit of the director.

B.

If the director finds that conditions in any park waters, or in any portion thereof, can be so regulated at a particular time that the participation of any vessel or group of vessels, or of certain classes, sizes or types thereof in a boat race, regatta, demonstration, exhibition or other special event will not create any danger to persons or property, and will not unduly interfere with the normal use of park waters, he may grant a temporary permit authorizing such vessels to participate in such special events at such times and under such conditions and restrictions as he may prescribe. A person may operate a vessel so authorized to participate in the manner prescribed by the permit, and so long as he complies in all respects with the terms, conditions and restrictions of such permit. Permits granted under the provisions of this section are immediately revocable upon determination by the director or his authorized representative that a dangerous or intolerable situation exists during the conduct of the special event.
