If approved, either in whole or in part, Council may adopt the ordinance amending the zoning by a majority vote of Council. If the proposed amendment is disapproved by the Commission, the ordinance may only be adopted by a two-thirds vote of the entire membership of Council.
The Planning Commission shall act upon any application for a proposed amendment to the Zoning Code within forty-five days from the date the same is referred to them, and it shall not be necessary to hold more than one public hearing thereon. In the event that the Commission fails to act within the forty-five day period, the Commission shall be deemed to have approved the amendment.
