§ 9508.2. Processing and Review.

Carson Zoning Code · 2026-06 edition · updated 2026-07-25 · Carson

  • A. The Petroleum Administrator shall endorse on the application the date it is received. An application or related document shall not be complete until an estimated deposit for the cost of processing has been paid to the City. If within thirty (30) days of receiving the application the Petroleum Administrator finds that all required information has not been submitted or the application is otherwise incomplete or inaccurate, the processing of the application and the running of any limits shall be suspended upon written notice to the applicant and a new thirty (30) day period shall commence once the required material is received by the Petroleum Administrator. If the Petroleum Administrator finds that the application is complete it shall be accepted for filing and the applicant so notified. The Petroleum Administrator shall review the application and determine the additional requirements necessary to complete processing of the agreement. After receiving the required information and the application is determined to be complete, the Petroleum Administrator shall prepare a staff report and recommendation to the Planning Commission and City Council stating whether or not the agreement as proposed or in an amended form would be consistent with policies of the City, this Chapter and any applicable general or specific plan. The City Attorney shall review the proposed development agreement as to legal form.

  • B. Notice of a hearing regarding the development agreement shall be given by the Petroleum Administrator and shall comply with the requirements of Section 65867 of the California Government Code, as may be amended, as well as in the manner set forth in CMC § 9173.22 , except that the Petroleum Administrator, not the Director, shall be responsible for providing notice.

  • C. The Planning Commission shall review the proposed development agreement and provide a recommendation to the City Council to approve, approve with modifications or deny the proposed development agreement. If the Planning Commission fails to take action within sixty (60) days of opening the hearing on the matter, such failure shall be deemed to have made a recommendation of denial to the City Council unless the applicant has requested an extension of time, either in writing or on the record, which has been approved by the Planning Commission prior to the running of the sixtieth day.

  • D. The proposed development agreement shall be set for hearing and consideration before the Council within sixty (60) days of the recommendation of the Planning Commission, unless the applicant agrees in writing to an extension of time with the Petroleum Administrator prior to the matter being heard by the Council.

  • E. Within ten (10) calendar days after the City enters into the development agreement, the City Clerk shall have the agreement recorded with the County Recorder. If the parties to the agreement or their successors in interest amend or cancel the agreement as provided in Section 65868 of the California Government Code, or if the City terminates or modifies the agreement as provided in Section 65865.1 of the California Government Code for failure of the applicant to comply in good faith with the terms or conditions of the agreement, the City Clerk shall have notice of such action recorded with the County Recorder.
