Planning & Zoning Board August 11, 1999 Page 6 Staff distributed and reviewed a draft of a new Development Review Process the City is working on. The final plan is to develop a handbook to give to applicants explaining the process. A final draft should be developed by November, 1999, for City Boards to review. Mr. Dunn complimented staff on the new process. He stated this is long overdue and he hopes elected officials are supporting this. He indicated he would volunteer as a citizen to help with the project. Mr. Johnson asked when the City is mandated to set a public hearing after an application is received. Mr. Smyser advised that the City has 10 days to determine if an application is complete. If the application is complete, the City must proceed. B. Conditional Use Permit Review Process Staff distributed a memo which outlines the Conditional Use Permit Review Process. The goal of the formalized process is to have compliance on all conditional use permits within the City. Mr. Johnson asked if the conditional use permit transfers to the new owner if a property sells. He suggested the new owner get a list of the conditions regarding the conditional use permit. Mr. Smyser indicated a conditional use permit does transfer to the new property owner. The selling of properties is hard to track, however, conditional use permits are recorded with the County. Acting Chair Lane asked who will be reviewing the conditions of approval. Mr. Smyser indicated that at the beginning primarily Ms. Wyland and the two building officials. When it is appropriate the Fire Chief and Chief of Police will be involved also. Acting Chair Lane asked if the various City Boards will be notified if violations are not corrected. Mr. Smyser stated if there is a problem City staff will work to resolve any outstanding issues. Mr. Dunn stated that the timing of a renewal, if there is a renewal, should be covered in this process. A form that is triggered monthly regarding the notification of the holder of the conditional use permit that the City will be reviewing should also be included in this process. The process should also be expended to include conditions of approval outside of conditional use permits. The City should take a more active role regarding compliance of all conditions of approval. Mr. Smyser advised the City is moving towards insuring that conditions are met before building permits are issued. VII. ADJOURNMENT • • •
