s= �:
I received a call from Councilmernber McComber indicating there is still some
confusion on the part of the members of the Planning Commission relative to the provisions of the
Zonin g Code which automatically extend the applications for a total 1 - day review period. As we
know, that provision of the City Ordinance is outdated and will be changed as soon as there are
enough other housekeeping modifications and changes to be made to the City's Zomm�g Ordinance
to just*fythe a pense. Ire the ameantime, the p fo the pas se m h as im plement ed
processnig protocol within, the Community Development Department pursuant to the taste,
forwarding a notice separately to be mailed to the applicant after the receipt of the application and
respective materials, extending the City's time period of review for an additional 60 days (therefore
1
120 days total) as to those applications that the Community Developrne epartnent eels wil
r equire that len gffi of t=e. Th are follovjing that protoc -ol as est shed by this Ice, and the
same is compliant with the Statute. I tnist this resolves any qu ion or inquiry at the members of
the Planning Commission may have, and I ask that you fo d a copy of 's on to them..
Yours verb truly,
Mark J. Vierling
