  • (1) A resolution of intention by the commission or city council;

  • (2) An owner of the affected property or the owner’s designated attorney in fact;

  • (3) A lessee who holds a lease, the terms of which permit the use applied for, or the lessee’s designated attorney in fact; and

  • (4) A plaintiff in an action in eminent domain to acquire the property as to which the special use permit, variance or planned development permit is sought.

(B) If an application for a special use permit, variance or planned development permit has been denied, a new application for the same entitlement relating to the same property shall not be accepted within 12 months of the denial.
