The City Council and Planning Commission discussed a recommenda-
tion shown in the November 16th minutes which indicates that
Conditional Use Permits would come before the Planning Commission
and a11 Zoning Variances and Minor Variances would go to the
Zoning Administrator for review.
Councilman King felt that Conditional Use Permits and Zoning
Variances should go before the Planning Comnission and only
Minor Variances should come before the Zoning Administrator.
Mayor White was present at 6:20 p.m.
City Planner DeStefano recommended that the Zoning Administrator
receive a11 Zoning Variances and Minor Variances since his time
schedule is more flexible for review of these items. He
suggested that the Zoning Administrator refer difficult variances
to the Planning Commission for review.
The Planning Commission and City Council discussed creating
written guidelines to differentiate between Zoning Variances
and Minor Variances. The present $75.00 appeal fee, charged
to applicants wishing to appeal Zoning Variance rulings, was
also discussed. Councilman McNeill felt applicants shouldn't
have to pay this fee.
It was suggested that the deciding authority might be able
to waive this fee and that the applicant could get his
money back if he withdrew his appeal. Also discussed was
a reduction in the $75.00 to $50.00. City Attorney Flandrick
stated that there is a problem in determining how a fee is
waived.
Mayor White recommended the following points:
1. That Conditional Use Permits should come before
the Planning Commission and a Consent Calendar
should be devised for those that do not need
time spent on.
