(Ord. No. 4451, § 8, 12-11-2012)

8184-2.1 - Initiation of amendments.

Esta sección aún no está traducida y se muestra en inglés.

Proposals to amend the Coastal Zoning Ordinance may be initiated in the following manner:

(a)

By the adoption of a Resolution of Intention by the Board of Supervisors requesting the Planning Commission to set the matter for hearing and recommendation within a reasonable time.

(b)

By the adoption of a Resolution of Intention by the Planning Commission setting the matter for hearing.

(c)

By Planning Director action.

(d)

By the filing with the Planning Division a complete application accompanied by the appropriate filing fee for:

(1)

A proposed change to the Coastal Zoning Ordinance by the owner of the property, by a person with a power of attorney from the owner, or by the attorney at law of the owner; or

(2)

A proposed amendment to the text of the Coastal Zoning Ordinance by an interested person.

(Ord. No. 4451, § 8, 12-11-2012)

8184-2.2 - Application forms.

Esta sección aún no está traducida y se muestra en inglés.

No application for an amendment shall be accepted for filing or processing without a completed application form. The Planning Director may prescribe the form and scope of such application forms.

(Ord. No. 4451, § 8, 12-11-2012)

8184-2.3 - Filing fee.

No application for an amendment shall be accepted for filing or processing unless the required fee, as specified by Board Resolution, is paid.

(a)

Penalty Fees. Where a use (or construction to that end) is commenced without the required amendment first being obtained, the fee for said amendment, as specified by Resolution of the Board of Supervisors, shall be doubled. In no event shall the double fee exceed the filing fee plus one thousand dollars ($1,000.00). Payment of such double fee shall not relieve persons from fully complying with the requirements of this Code, nor from any other penalties prescribed herein.

(Ord. No. 4451, § 8, 12-11-2012)

8184-2.4 - Study of additional area.

Esta sección aún no está traducida y se muestra en inglés.

The Planning Director, upon review of an application or Resolution of Intention for an amendment, may elect to include a larger area or additional land in the study of the amendment request.

(Ord. No. 4451, § 8, 12-11-2012)

8184-2.5 - Frequency of amendments.

Esta sección aún no está traducida y se muestra en inglés.

The LCP shall not be amended more frequently than three (3) times during any calendar year. The amendments may occur at any time as determined by the County, and each amendment may include several different changes.

(Ord. No. 4451, § 8, 12-11-2012)

8184-2.6 - Screening of privately-initiated applications for zoning ordinance amendments.

(a)

All privately-initiated applications for amendments to the Coastal Zoning Ordinance (Section 8184-2.1(d)) shall first be first screened by the Board of Supervisors prior to any further processing by the Planning Division staff. The purpose of this Board of Supervisors initial screening process is to determine if the privately-initiated application is consistent with the purpose of ordinance amendments in Section 8184-1 and appropriate for further processing by the Planning Division staff, or if for any reason such further processing is not warranted.

(b)

The Planning Division shall prepare a brief report and recommendation for the Board to use in its screening decision-making process.

(c)

If the Board does authorize Planning Division staff to further process the privately-initiated amendment to the Coastal Zoning Ordinance, the Board action shall not confer or imply ultimate approval of any such Coastal Zoning Ordinance amendment request. If the Board does not authorize Planning Division staff to further process the privately-initiated amendment, that decision shall be final.

(Ord. No. 4451, § 8, 12-11-2012)
