A. If the city staff shall determine that the proposed site plan will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the community nor will cause traffic congestion or seriously depreciate surrounding property values and the same time is in harmony with the purposes and intent of this chapter, the plan for the area, and the general plan, the staff may grant such site plan approval, and such conditions and safeguards may be imposed as they deem necessary. Staff shall notify the planning and zoning commission at its next regular meeting of any site plan approvals made by staff.
B. Minor site plan approval applications may be denied by city staff upon finding and determination by the staff that the conditions required for approval do not exist.
C. When a minor site plan approval application is denied by city staff, an appeal may be taken to the planning and zoning commission. If unusual or significantly difficult conditions exist which affect the site plan, the zoning administrator may determine and require that the site plan be reviewed and acted upon by the planning and zoning commission.
