Where a permit also requires review by the planning commission (commission) or the board of design review (board) under BC 9.05.050, the commission’s or board’s approval must be obtained prior to the issuance of the permit by the city engineer. The city engineer shall transmit in writing recommendations for preliminary approval and conditions based on this ordinance to the commission or board, as appropriate, prior to the commission’s or board’s decision. If the city engineer denies the permit, the denial is immediately appealable by the applicant under BC 9.05.091 and the denial does not need to be reviewed by the commission or board. If the commission or board denies the proposed work on grounds within its authority, the site development permit shall be automatically denied without any further action of the city engineer. If application for a site development permit is made after the commission’s or board’s approval of a site plan, the preliminary approval and conditions shall be submitted to the director of community development who shall review it for conformity to the commission’s or board’s approval, requirements and conditions. If the director of community development finds it has a major impact on the commission’s or board’s prior approval, the applicant shall be required to resubmit plans to the commission or board, as appropriate.
