Section 2 Subds. 1. — 9. DRAFT AMENDMENTS May 2011 D. The Zoning Administrator shall instruct the appropriate staff persons to prepare technical reports where appropriate, and provide general assistance in preparing a recommendation of the action to the City Council. E. The Planning and Zoning Board shall consider possible adverse effects of the proposed amendment. Its judgment shall be based upon, but not limited to, the following factors: 1. The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and provisions of and has been found to be consistent with the official City Comprehensive Plan. 2. The proposed use is or will be compatible with present and future land uses of the area. 3. The proposed use conforms with all performance standards contained herein. 4. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will not overburden the City's service capacity. 5. Traffic generation by the proposed use is within capabilities of streets serving the property. A public hearing on the rezoning zoning amendment application shall be held by the Planning and Zoning Board or City Council. G. The City Council must approve or deny the application within sixty (60) days of receiving all required information. Failure of the City Council to deny an application within sixty (60) days is approval of the request. If the City Council denies an application, it shall state in writing the reasons for the denial at the time it denies the application. However, when a vote on a resolution or properly made motion to approve an application fails for any reason, the failure shall constitute a denial of the application provided that those voting against the motion state on the record the reasons why they oppose the application. 1. The sixty (60) day time limit starts over only if the City sends notice, within ten (15) business days of receipt of the application, telling the applicant what information is missing. The City may extend the sixty (60) day time limit before the end of such time limit by providing written notice of the extension to the applicant. The notification shall state the reasons for the extension and its anticipated length, which may not exceed sixty (60) days, unless approved by the applicant. An applicant may by written notice to the City request an extension of the time limit. Lino Lakes Zoning Ordinance Administration Amended per Ord. No. 05 -09 2 -2 • • •
