(a) Council may, from time to time, on its own motion or on petition, after public notice and hearing as provided by law and after report by the Planning Commission, amend, supplement or change the boundaries or regulations in the Zoning Ordinance established now or subsequently. In case the Planning Commission disapproves the proposed change, such amendment shall not be passed except by the favorable vote of three-fourths of all members of Council. If no report is received from the Planning Commission in sixty days, it may be assumed that such Commission has approved the amendment.
(b) Before any action shall be taken as provided in this section, the party or parties proposing or recommending a change in the district regulations or district boundaries shall deposit with the Finance Director the fee specified in Section 1143.02 to cover the approximate cost of this procedure and under no condition shall such sum or any part thereof be refunded for failure of such change to be adopted by Council.
