(1975 Code §5.191)
In cases where the City Planning Commission is empowered to approve certain uses of premises under the provisions of this Zoning Code, the applicant shall furnish such surveys, plans or other information as may be reasonably required by said Commission for the proper consideration of the matter.
The Planning Commission shall investigate the circumstances of each such case and shall notify such parties, who may in its opinion be affected thereby, of the time and place of any hearing which may be held relative thereto as required under its rules of procedure.
The Planning Commission may impose such conditions or limitations in granting approval as may in its judgment be necessary to fulfill the spirit and purpose of this Zoning Code.
Any approval given by the Planning Commission, under which premises are not used or work is not started within six months, or when such use or work has been abandoned for a period of six months, shall lapse and cease to be in effect.
(1975 Code § 5.195)
The provisions of this Zoning Code shall be administered and enforced by the Community Development Director or by such deputies of his or her department as the Director may delegate to enforce the provisions of this Zoning Code.
The Community Development Director shall have the power to grant zoning compliance and occupancy permits and to make inspections of buildings or premises necessary to carry out his or her duties in the enforcement of this Zoning Code. The Director shall not approve any plans or issue any permits or certificates of occupancy for any excavation or construction until he or she has inspected such plans in detail and found them to conform to this Zoning Code.
The Director shall record all nonconforming uses existing on the effective date of this Zoning Code for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of Chapter 1278.
Under no circumstances is the Director permitted to make changes to this Zoning Code, nor to vary the terms of this Zoning Code in carrying out his or her duties as Director.
