All departments, officials or public employees vested with the duty or authority to issue permits or licenses where required by law shall conform to the provisions of the zoning code; except, however, that permits for transient activities including, transient sales, parades, sports tournaments, nonpermanent filming activities, and special events not regulated by the zoning code shall be allowed in conformance with all other requirements of the Municipal Code.
