(a) The noise control officer shall review an application for a variance to determine if the applicant has provided all information necessary to render a decision on the application. If the application is not complete, the noise control officer shall notify the applicant within 15 days from the date the application was submitted what additional information the applicant needs to provide to make the application complete. If the applicant does not provide the additional information within 15 days of the notice the noise control officer shall deny the application. Within 30 days after receiving a completed application the noise control officer shall deny, approve or grant conditional approval of the request for a variance and notify the applicant in writing of the action taken.
(b) If the noise control officer denies the request for a variance the notice of denial shall state the reasons for the denial. If the noise control officer conditionally approves the variance request the notice of conditional approval shall clearly state the conditions and the reasons for the conditional approval.
(c) An applicant may deem a variance denied if the application has not been acted on within 30 days after the application was submitted or within 15 days after providing additional information requested by the noise control officer, whichever is later.
