(A) The Planning Commission or the Zoning Administrator, as the case may be, shall hold a public hearing on an application for a use permit or variance. An application for an administrative use permit shall be acted upon by the Zoning Admini-strator without a public hearing being held. Similarly, design review shall not require a public hearing.
(B) The Zoning Administrator shall set a tentative time and place for a public hearing to be held within 90 calendar days of receiving a completed application.
(C) Notice of the hearing shall be given in the following manner:
(1) Mailed or delivered notice. At least 10 calendar days prior to the hearing a notice shall be mailed to the applicant and all owners of property within 300 feet of the boundaries of the site subject as shown on the last equalized property tax assessment role. This noticing area may be expanded if the application is perceived to have impacts beyond a 300 foot radius. Where environmental review requires more extensive noticing, it can occur simultaneously.
(2) Posted notice. Notice shall be posted 10 days prior to the hearing at the Planning Depart-ment and in one newspaper of general circulation. Where environmental review requires more extensive noticing, it can occur simultaneously.
(D) The notice of public hearing shall contain:
(1) A description of the location of the development site and the purpose of the application;
(2) A statement of the time, place, and purpose of the public hearing;
(3) A reference to application materials on file for detailed information; and
(4) A statement that any interested person or an authorized agent may appear and be heard.
(E) When applications for design review, use permits, variances or combinations thereof are filed at the same time for a single site, the city may schedule a combined public hearing.
