(a) Review by Staff and Consultants. The application shall be referred to Village Departments and to the Village Engineer and other Village consultants for review and comment.
(b) Review by Commission. The Commission shall review the complete application package as transmitted by the Zoning Inspector in terms of the standards established in this Zoning Code. If deemed necessary, the Commission, with the consent of the applicant, may refer an application to qualified consultants for review. The cost of such review shall be at the expense of the applicant. The Zoning Inspector shall notify owners of properties within 500 feet, or a larger area if the Zoning Inspector deems it appropriate, of the perimeter of the property proposed for development not less than ten days prior to the meeting at which the application will be considered by the Commission.
(c) Action by Commission. The Commission shall take action on the application within 45 days from the date of the Commission meeting at which all required plans and data were received.
(d) Call up Authority for Conditionally Permitted Uses. Whenever the Commission reviews and grants either preliminary or final approval of an application for approval of a conditional use or whenever the Board grants either preliminary or final approval of an application for approval of a conditional use upon appeals from a decision of the Commission, such approval shall not become effective for a period of 30 days after the meeting at which the Commission or Board approved the motion for preliminary or final approval of a conditional use. Within said 30-day period, Council, either by letter filed with the Clerk of Council signed by four members of Council or by the affirmative vote of four members of Council, may call up the issue of the approval of the conditional use. Council may at any time during said 30-day period waive its right to exercise such call up authority. Upon Council exercising its call up authority, the action of the Commission or Board in granting preliminary or final approval of the conditional use shall not become effective and Council may review the approval of the conditional use using the same standards as are contained in the Zoning Code governing the Commission's consideration of applications for approval of conditional uses. The Council shall not be bound by any time limit in its deliberations. In any such case in which Council exercises its authority to call up the application for approval of a conditional use under this section, the determination of Council shall have final approval authority over the consideration of application for approval of a conditional use.
