Conditional use permits are designed to <br />meet the problem which arises where certain uses, although generally <br />compatible with the basic use classification of a particular zone, <br />should not be permitted to be located as a matter of right in every' <br />area included within the zone because of hazards inherent in the use <br />itself or special problems which its proposed location may present. <br /> <br />170. 016B APPLICATION <br /> <br />Applications for conditional uses shall be filed with the zoning <br />officer and shall be accompanied by: <br /> <br />An application fee in an amount equal'to that set <br />by resolution of the city council; <br />Ten (10) copies of a site plan and supporting data <br />which shows the size, location and topography of <br />the site, the use of adjacent land, the proposed <br />site, bulk, use and location of buildings, the <br />location and proposed function of all yards, open <br />spaces, parking areas, driveways, storage areas and <br />accessory structures, the location of all utilities, <br />the provisions for parking, moving or loading of <br />vehicles, and the timing of construction proposed. <br /> <br />170.016C REVIEW AND TERM <br /> <br />The zoning officer shall forward copies of the application to the city <br />council and to the planning commission for review and approval. <br /> <br /> 1.
