What this form is
Bell's Planning Division requires a Temporary Use of Land or Special Event Permit for temporary structures, filming, or events on private property. The application's submittal checklist states the property owner's signature must be notarized, and the form itself carries a full California acknowledgment block so the city can confirm the owner authorized the applicant to act as their representative.
Who needs it

Why it needs a notary
The submittal checklist and the form text both require the property owner's signature to be notarized, including a full 'before me... personally appeared' California acknowledgment.
