Notice of evidentiary hearings conducted, pursuant to this section, shall be mailed to the person or entity whose appeal, application or request is the subject of the hearing; to the owner of the property that is the subject of the hearing, if the owner did not initiate the hearing; to the owners of all parcels of land abutting the parcel of land that is the subject of the hearing; and to any other person entitled to receive notice as provided by the Zoning Ordinance. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, the city may rely on the Gaston County tax listing to determine owners of property entitled to mailed notice. The notice must be deposited in the mail at least ten days, but not more than 25 days, prior to the date of the hearing. Within that same time period, the city shall also prominently post a notice of the hearing on the site that is the subject of the hearing or on an adjacent street of highway right-of-way.
