A conditional use permit may be issued in the manner specified herein for any of the uses or purposes for which such conditional use per- mits are required by the terms of this title. (Ord. 210 § 3 (Exh. A) (part), 2007)

A. Application for a conditional use permit shall be made to the city council in writing on a form prescribed by the city council, and shall be accompanied by a site plan of sufficient detail to show the detail of the proposed use of land or building. Such application shall be accompanied by a fee set by the city council. B. The city shall have thirty (30) days to determine if the application is complete and will give written notice of any additional infor- mation required to make the application com- plete. (Ord. 210 § 3 (Exh. A) (part), 2007)

A public hearing by the city council shall be held within forty-five (45) days after the filing of the application for the conditional use per- mit; provided, that compliance with the Cali- fornia Environmental Quality Act has been completed. Notice of the hearing shall be given in the manner set forth in Section 18.30.010. (Ord. 210 § 3 (Exh. A) (part), 2007)

A. In order to grant any conditional use per- mit, the findings of the city council shall be that the establishment, maintenance or operation of the use or building applied for will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be materially detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort and general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighbor- hood of such proposed use, or be materially detrimental to property or improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the city. B. The city council may designate such conditions in connection with approval of a conditional use permit as it deems necessary to secure the purposes of this title, and may require that such conditions will be complied with by the permittee. C. The city council shall render its decision on any conditional use permit within thirty-five (35) days following close of the public hearing. Failure of the council to render its decision within the period shall be deemed to be a denial of the application. The granting of any use per- mit, when conforming to the provisions of this subsection, is an administrative function, the authority and responsibility for performing which is imposed upon the city council and the action thereon by the council shall be final and conclusive. (Ord. 210 § 3 (Exh. A) (part), 2007)

179-58 (Revised 8-11) 179-58 (Revised 8-11) with a site plan submitted pursuant to Section 18.32.060 and approved at the time of issuance of the use permit. In the event the holder of a use permit desires to modify said site plan, an application shall be filed for modification of the site plan for approval or disapproval of the city council, in accordance with the same pro- cedure for the issuance of a use permit as pro- vided in this chapter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, minor alterations of the site plan may be granted by the city administrator or his/her authorized employee, if he/she finds that such modification does not materially change the site plan or have the potential of adversely impacting adjacent property owners, and is otherwise in full compliance with all other provisions of this code or any other laws, rules or regulations relating thereto. (Ord. 210 § 3 (Exh. A) (part), 2007)

A. The city may move to revoke an approved use permit if the permit is not used within one year from the date of approval, or in the event the use permitted is abandoned or not utilized for a period of one year, or the permit- tee fails to comply with the conditions of approval of the permit. B. Any use permit granted in accordance with the terms of this title may be revoked if any of the conditions or terms of such permit are violated or if any law or ordinance is vio- lated in connection therewith, or if the city council finds, that the continuance of the use permit will endanger the public health, safety or welfare. C. The city council shall hold a hearing on any proposed revocation after giving written notice to the permittee at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing. (Ord. 210 § 3 (Exh. A) (part), 2007)
