(A) No application, other than one initiated by the Commission or Council, shall be accepted, for a change of zone, or other change listed above in this chapter, for the parcels of property, or portions thereof, which have been included in an application upon which final action has been taken by the Council within 12 months prior to the date of said application, for the same or substantially the same change.
(B) If, however, a substantial change of circumstances is shown to have occurred since the previous unsuccessful application, the applicant may reapply after the elapse of six months from the final action on the prior application, by applying to the Commission for permission to file the subsequent application for rezoning. A denial by the Commission of permission to file a new application for rezoning may be appealed.
