22.10.100 Review, revocation, and modification of permits and approvals.
A. Review of Approved Permits. Any approval or permit issued under the authority of the unified development regulations may be reviewed for compliance with the requirements of the development regulations, or to determine if the action is creating a nuisance or hazard, has been abandoned, or the approval or permit was obtained by fraud or deception.
1. The review of an approval of a permit may be initiated by the zoning administrator, city administrator, city council, or by petition to the zoning administrator by three property owners or three residents of separate dwelling units in the city, stating their belief as to the noncompliance, nuisance, or hazard of the permitted activity.
2. Upon receipt of information indicating the need for, or upon receiving a request for, review of permit or approval, the zoning administrator shall investigate the matter and take one or more of the following actions:
a. Notify the property owner or permit holder of the investigation; and/or
b. Issue a civil regulatory order and/or civil fine and/or recommend revocation or modification of the permit or approval; and/or
c. Refer the matter to the city attorney; and/or
d. Refer the matter to the hearing examiner with a recommendation for action.
B. Revocation or Modification of Permits and Approvals.
1. Upon receiving a recommendation from the zoning administrator for revocation or modification of a permit or approval, the hearing examiner shall review the matter at a public hearing. Upon a finding that the activity does not comply with the conditions of approval or the provisions of the development regulations, or creates a nuisance or hazard, the hearing examiner may delete, modify, or impose such conditions on the permit or approval they deem sufficient to remedy the deficiencies. If the hearing examiner finds no reasonable conditions that would remedy the deficiencies, the permit or approval shall be revoked and the activity allowed by the permit or approval shall cease.
2. If a permit or approval is revoked for fraud or deception, no similar application shall be accepted for a period of one year from the date of final action and appeal, if any. If a permit or approval is revoked for any other reason, another application may be submitted subject to all of the requirements of the development regulations. (Ord. 005/2019 § 10 (Exh. B))
