(1) If a project action requires two or more permit types, the applicant may elect in writing to have the permit reviewed under a consolidated permit review process. This includes a combined application review and approval process covering all project permits requested by an applicant for all or part of a project action and a designated permit coordinator. If an applicant elects the consolidated process, the determination of completeness, the notice of application, and notice of final decision must include all project permits being reviewed through the consolidated permit review process.

(2) When applying concurrently for a development that involves two or more related applications, individual permit numbers shall be assigned and separate permit fees shall be paid, but the applications shall be reviewed and processed collectively at the applicant’s request. Consolidated reports setting forth the recommendation and decision shall be issued.

(3) If the applicant elects to have a project reviewed under a consolidated permit process, it shall be reviewed collectively under the highest numbered procedure required for any part of the application.

(4) No hearing or deliberation upon an application which is inconsistent with the existing zoning map shall be scheduled for the same meeting at which the required zoning map amendment will be considered by the appropriate hearing body. This section is intended to be a procedural requirement applicable to such actions as noted in RCW 58.17.070. (Ord. 1499 § 6 (Exh. F), 2021).
