3.5.H Evaluation of NPP

  1. The Executive Director of the CPC will ensure that the written NPP Report meets all the minimum requirements regarding meeting date, time, and location set forth herein when evaluating the completeness of the application.
  2. The City Planning Commission or Board of Zoning Adjustments, as applicable, may evaluate the sufficiency of the NPP as part of its public hearing process on the application for which the NPP was conducted. In so doing, they may consider whether the applicant endeavored to provide meaningful notice to neighbors and whether any deficiencies in such notice notably affected the provision of this notice. If the Commission or Board determines that, in its judgment, the NPP process did not provide meaningful notice, it may defer the matter to require the applicant to engage in additional notice efforts.
