(a) Procedure. Amendments to the Official Zoning Map or to the text of the Zoning Code may be initiated by the filing of an application for that purpose by one or more owners of property within the area proposed to be affected by the proposed amendment. Amendments may also be initiated by City Council or the Planning Commission. Proposed amendments shall be reviewed and notices provided as required by Section 6.02 of the Charter of the City of Brunswick.
(b) Applications. Amendment applications shall be submitted on a form prescribed by the Planning Commission for that purpose, and shall be accompanied by all required attachments and a fee as established in Chapter 1216. All applications for a zoning map or text amendment shall include:
(1) Evidence that the proposed map or text change is more in conformance with the adopted Comprehensive Plan than the existing map or text.
(2) Evidence that the proposed amendment would materialize in an equal or better Zoning Code than that existing.
A limitation upon the financial gain from the land in question shall not constitute unreasonable zoning or establish cause to change the existing zoning.
