Whenever there is a question as to whether an application satisfies the home occupation standards, such as with the Type II, the city planner will require a petition with the approval of all of the owners (or their representatives) of abutting or immediately adjacent properties, and two-thirds of the remaining property owners (or their representatives) within 250 feet of the exterior boundaries of the subject property. If the city planner does not receive the necessary signatures, the applicant shall be referred to the planning commission for consideration. The planning commission shall hold a public hearing within 60 days of the date the application was filed with the city, and notice of the public hearing shall be provided as set forth in Chapter 18.190 TMC, with the exception that only property owners within 250 feet of the subject property shall be notified by mail, which includes all residents of adjoining property. The applicant shall make a deposit to the city sufficient to cover the administrative costs of processing the application, including but not limited to the costs of the publication and mailing of public hearing notices. Any surplus shall be refunded to the applicant after the actual costs have been ascertained. The application shall be approved if the planning commission finds that the home occupation satisfies the conditions of TMC 18.170.030. The planning commission may place conditions on the approval if such conditions will effectively allow the home occupation to satisfy the criteria of TMC 18.170.030. [Ord. 817 § 8-3L.640, 2006.]
