Sec. 17.41.1-17.41.5

Other

• Applicant qualification

  Only a qualified applicant (including an agent of the applicant) may file an application. A qualified applicant is a person or an agent of a person who has either: (1) a freehold interest in the land which is the subject of the application; (2) a possessory interest in that land which gives entitlement to exclusive possession; or (3) a contractual interest which is specifically enforceable and thereby may become a freehold or exclusive possessory interest. The Planning Director may require an applicant to submit proof of the interest. The Planning Director may require an agent to submit evidence of authority to act for the applicant.

• Application fee

  The City Council shall, by resolution, fix the fee to be charged for the filing and processing of each application, the preparation of environmental impact documents and the appeal from the decision of a subordinate agency. The City Council also may require cash deposits, bonds or other guarantees of performance as may be appropriate to ensure that the requirements of this Title and any conditions of approval are met.

• Application form

  The Planning Director shall prescribe the form for each application provided as required under this title. The Planning Director may require an applicant to submit such information and supporting data considered necessary to the processing of the particular application.

• Application processing

  The Planning Director shall endorse on the application the date it is received. The Planning Director shall review each application and may reject it within thirty (30) days if it is incomplete or inaccurate consistent with the provisions of the State Permit Streamlining Act, in accord with state law. If it is found that it is complete, the Planning Director shall accept it for filing. When a public hearing is required, the Planning Director shall set the time for the holding of a public hearing.

• Reapplication restriction

  If an application is denied and the decision is final, a new application for substantially the same project shall not be made for one year from the date the decision is final.
