shall hold a public hearing and approve, approve with conditions, or deny the Special Use Pennit based
on the review criteria in "E", below.
E. Review Criteria
In granting a Special Use Pennit, the Commission and the Council shall determine that the proposed
use:
1. Complements or is compatible with the surrounding uses and community facilities;
2. Contributes to, enhances, or promotes the welfare of the area of request and adjacent properties;
3. Is not detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare;
4. Conforms in all other respects to all applicable zoning regulations and standards; and
5. Is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
F. Additional Conditions
The Commission and Council may impose reasonable conditions upon the granting of a Special Use
Pennit consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, other state development goals and objectives of the
City, and the requirements of other City regulations. Such conditions may include, but are not limited
to the location, arrangement, operation, duration, and type and manner of construction of any use for
which a Special Use Pennit is requested.
