The council may, by minute order, request the planning commission to consider the rezoning of any property, or the planning commission may, of its own initiative, consider such a change. In either case the planning commission shall proceed as though an application for a change had been filed with the zoning administrator as provided in section 10-3-3901 of this chapter; provided, however, written notices need not be mailed if such notice is deemed impracticable by the planning commission. (1962 Code § 10-862; amd. Ord. 95-O-2239, eff. 7-7-1995)
