  • (b) The site should be obscured from view by natural or artificial screening.

The planning commission may require the applicant for a conditional use permit for a cemetery, crematory, mausoleum or columbarium to include with his or her application a site map, the names and addresses of all residents within a radius of 2,000 feet from the exterior boundaries of the proposed site, a proposal for the perpetual care of the facility, proof of financial ability to develop and maintain the facility and such other information as may be reasonably necessary to adequately process the application.

The commission shall set a reasonable filing fee to be charged the applicant in order to cover costs involved in processing the application.
