(1) Project Analysis. Upon determination that the proposed project is consistent with the adopted development regulations and standards a single staff report shall be prepared which consolidates all land use development permit recommendations or decisions. The report shall state any mitigation required or proposed under the development regulations or through SEPA. If a threshold determination, other than a determination of significance, has not been previously issued by the city, the report shall include or append the SEPA threshold determination for the project. The SEPA threshold determination shall be issued at least 15 calendar days prior to the opening of a public hearing.

(2) Insufficient Information. If, upon review of a complete application, the city finds that additional information is necessary or corrections are required to be made to the plans to be consistent with city codes and regulations, the city shall write a letter to the applicant detailing the necessary corrections. The applicant shall have 90 calendar days from the date of the letter requesting additional information to submit the necessary information to the city. If the applicant does not submit the required information within 90 calendar days, the application shall lapse for failure to submit the necessary information in a timely manner, and the community development director, or his/her designee, shall document that the application has lapsed for failure to submit the necessary information in a timely manner and close the permit application file. The director may allow for an extension to submit the required information, not to exceed an additional 60 days.

(3) Applications may be approved, approved with conditions, or denied. For those permits subject to review by the hearing examiner, the examiner may remand an application to staff for further review. If an application for a permit is denied, the applicant may not submit another application for development of the same property sooner than one year after the date of such denial. (Ord. 1499 § 6 (Exh. F), 2021).
