Such a modification or waiver by the City Clerk shall be appealable to the City Manager and then to City Council as desired by the applicant.

(d)

Special events held within one year following the effective date of Chapter 13, Article XXVII Special Events shall not be required to pay fees for solicitor/peddler permits. The remaining fees shall be in effect from the effective date forward.
