CO~DITIO~., ~ PER.TS The purpose of this section is to provide the City of Bamsey with a reasonable degree of discretion in determining the suitability of oertain designated uses upon the general welfare, public health, and safety. A conditional use is a use which because of certain characteristics cannot be properly classified as a permitted use in the zoning district within which it is proposed. Conditional use permits are designed to meet the problem which arises where certain uses, although generally compatible with the basic use classification of a particular zone, should not be permitted to be located as a matter of right in every area included within the zone because of hazards inherent in the use itself or special problems which its proposed location may represent. Applications for conditional uses shall be filed with the zoning officer and shall be a(x~m~ed by: a. An application fee in an amount equal to that set by resolution of the City Council; b. A site plan and supporting data which shcws the size, location, and topography of the site, the use of adjacent land, the proposed site, bulk, use, and location of buildings, the location and proposed function of all yards, open spaces, parking areas, loading (where re- quired), storage areas, screening, fencing, signs, ac- cessory structures, the location of all utilities, and the timing of construction proposed. ~he zoning officer shall forward copies of the application to the Planning (k~ission and City Gouncil for review and approval. The Planning Commission shall conduct a public hearing on the conditional use application and shall give at least 10 days mailed notice to property owners within 350 feet of the outer boundaries of the property in question. Ten days published notice in the official newpaper shall precede the hearing. Any person may appear and testify at the hearing either in person or by duly authorized agent. The Planning Commission shall forward its findings on the application to the City Council within 30 days of the public hearing unless the petitioner agrees in writing to a time extension. ~he City Council shall review the application and findings of the Planning C(x~ission and shall act upon said application within 30 days after receipt from the Planning Commission. If the City Gouncil denies the application, that action shall be the City's final administrative action on the application. If the City Council approves the application, as a condition of that approval, the Council may attach such conditions as it deems necessary, including the duration of the conditional use permit. Ail development, construction and use, shall be in accordance with the approved plan and conditions required by the City C-4
