1109.03 CONTENTS OF APPLICATION FOR AMENDMENT TO ZONING ORDINANCE.
   (a)    Application for amendment to the Zoning Ordinance pursuant to Section 1109.02(c) shall first be submitted to the Zoning Inspector for determination of compliance with Section 1109.03 and application shall be submitted on forms made available by the Zoning Inspector and shall include the following:
      (1)   Evidence that the proposed amendment would materialize in an equal or better zoning ordinance than that existing.
      (2)   A statement of the proposed text change in the regulation set forth in this Zoning Ordinance.
      (3)   A map of the proposed zoning district and geographic boundaries.
      (4)   If application is initiated under Section 1109.02(c), a fee as specified by Section 1107.08 shall be deposited with Zoning Inspector.
      (5)   Evidence that the existing Zoning Ordinance is unreasonable with respect to the particular property, and that it deprives the property owner of his lawful and reasonable use of the land. For the purposes of the Zoning Ordinance a limitation upon the financial gain from the land in question shall not constitute unreasonable zoning.
      (6)   A list of all current property owners within, contiguous to and directly across the street and property within 500 feet from the parcel(s) proposed to be rezoned as well as the addresses of those owners.
      (7)   A statement on how the proposed amendment relates to Streetsboro policies plan for development.
   Applications to amend parts of this Zoning Ordinance other than the Zoning District Map, shall include at least items (1), (2) and (7).
(Ord. 1989-51. Passed 8-28-89.)
   (b)   Once an application is complete, including the payment of fees, the Zoning Inspector shall transmit the following to the Clerk of the City Planning Commission for placement on the agenda:
      (1)   A copy of the completed application; and
      (2)   A statement certifying the actual number of single family and multi- family units in the City, and the ratio derived from comparing single family units to multi-family units. All units that have received the requisite approval from the City shall be included even though not actually constructed. (Ord. 1994-74. Passed 7-25-94.)
   (c)   Within three days after the Zoning Inspector receives a satisfactorily completed application for a change in the zoning map, the Zoning Inspector shall transmit the application to the Service Director. Within five days of receiving the application, the Service Director shall post a sign on the property stating that the property is under consideration for rezoning and to contact City Hall. The sign shall be 4 feet X 6 feet and shall state the current zoning and the proposed zoning. The sign shall be setback on the proposed property according to the Sign Ordinance, but shall be placed where it is clearly visible to any passersby. The sign shall remain on the site until the application has been properly disposed of by the Planning Commission and Council. Failure to meet the timelines, failure to post or failure to maintain the sign on the property shall not invalidate any action taken on the application by the Planning Commission or Council.
