(a) To notify within a reasonable period, not to be greater than 36 hours in advance of the event, the intent to conduct the activity, event or demonstration, subject to the non-applicability of the exceptions established in this chapter; it being understood as an exception that the preceding restriction shall not apply when the event or situation which motivates the demonstration arises within the immediacies of the event in question or at a time before the thirty-six (36) hours that precede the demonstration. In these cases, the duty to notify shall be performed within a prudent and reasonable period, not to be less than twenty-four (24) hours, so as to allow for the activity to be coordinated with sufficient time in advance in order to enforce the provisions of this chapter.
