§ 153.15 CHANGES UPON ANNEXATION OF UNINCORPORATED AREA.

   Prior to annexation of an unincorporated area, the county shall request and receive a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission on the proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance changes for the unincorporated area.

§ 153.16 ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES.

   (A)   Upon receipt of a development application, the county shall follow the notification and public hearing requirements specified in Idaho Code Title 67. All applications must be sign by the property owner in question. It shall be the applicant’s responsibility to collect and turn into the city, as part of his or her application, the names of all property owners within 300 feet of the property (excluding streets and alleys) if such notification is required.

   (B)   Applications for variances to the code shall be considered when they are not contrary to the public interest where, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the provisions of this subchapter will result in an unnecessary hardship because of the physical characteristics of the site. A variance is a modification of the requirements of this subchapter such as minimum lot size, width, depth, setbacks affecting the size or shape of the structure or the placement of the structure upon lots, or the size of the lots. A variance shall not be considered a right or privilege and will only be granted to the applicant if hardship is proven and it is not in conflict with the public interest.
