(A) Should either the City Council or any board vote to deny the request made by an applicant and presented at a public hearing, the same or similar issue presented at such public hearing cannot be refiled with the City Council or any board for the minimum period of twelve (12) months after the date of such denial.
(B) However, the City Council or any board may reconsider the same or similar issue within the twelve (12) month period if a mistake, inadvertence, surprise or excusable neglect has occurred as a result of the actions of the applicant or the city, provided that the event directly or indirectly formed a basis for the City Council's or any board's decision to deny the request at the public hearing.
