What this form is
Mountlake Terrace uses this checklist to identify the minimum materials needed to accept a Temporary Use Permit application. Applicants must submit the listed items electronically through the online ETrakit form, including a site plan and, for use of private property, signed and notarized owner authorization stating the temporary use. The city may require additional fees, and its instructions say to contact the department before omitting an item believed not to apply.
Who needs it
Applicants seeking a Mountlake Terrace Temporary Use Permit need the checklist and, when using private property, authorization signed and notarized by the property owner.
Why it needs a notary
The checklist requires the property-owner authorization to be signed and notarized but provides no jurat or acknowledgment block; the property owner signs before the notary.
