Sec. 28.14  Emergency action.

    If allowable by local law and if immediate action is essential to 
avoid or eliminate an immediate threat to the public health or safety or 
a serious and immediate threat to private property or natural resources, 
an agency or person may commence a temporary use without a permit from 
the zoning authority. In all cases, the agency or person shall inform 
the Superintendent and send an application for a permit to the zoning 
authority within 10 days after the commencement of the use and the 
applicant shall proceed in full compliance with the provisions of the 
approved local zoning ordinance. When the reasons for undertaking the 
emergency action no longer exist, the agency or person shall cease an 
emergency action taken under this section.
