(B) Applicant to provide data. The applicant, for a permit for any section for which environmental documents are required, shall supply in the manner prescribed by the Zoning Administrator or Clerk all unprivileged data or information reasonably requested by the city that the applicant has in his or her possession or to which he or she has reasonable access.
(C) Determination of need for EAW or EIS. The Council shall be responsible for determining whether an action is one for which an EAW or EIS is required under this chapter.
(D) Preparation of EAW or EIS. All EAWs and EISs shall be prepared under the supervision of the Zoning Administrator or Clerk, reviewed by the Planning Commission, and reviewed and approved by the Council.
(E) Recommended changes. When reviewing an EAW or EIS, the Zoning Administrator or Clerk and the Planning Commission may suggest design alternatives or other action, including no action, which would lessen the environmental impact of the action. The Council may require these design alterations to be made as a condition for issuing the permit.
(F) Review. After an EAW is prepared, the Planning Commission shall review the EAW and recommend to the Council whether or not it should require the preparation of an EIS. The Council shall require an EIS when it finds that action is major and has potential for significant environmental effects.
