Recognizing that certain uses may be desirable when located in the community, but that these uses may be incompatible with other uses permitted in a district, certain conditional uses listed in Section 400.650 below when found to be in the interest of the public health, safety, morals, and general welfare of the community may be permitted, except as otherwise specified, in any district from which they are prohibited. Before the location or establishment thereof, or before any change of use of the premises existing at the time of the effective date of these regulations (February 1, 1966) or permitted as herein provided is made, preliminary plans in sufficient detail and a statement as to the proposed use of the buildings, structures, and premises shall be submitted to the Planning and Zoning Commission. The Commission shall hold a public hearing as provided in Article XVII and shall review such plans and statements and shall, after a careful study thereof, and of the effect that such buildings, structures, or uses will have upon the surrounding territory, submit a recommendation to the City Council within thirty (30) days following said hearing. Following receipt of the Commission's report, the City Council may, within the specifications herein provided, permit such buildings, structures, or uses where requested, provided that the public health, safety, morals, and general welfare will not be adversely affected, that ample off-street parking facilities will be provided, and that necessary safeguards will be provided for the protection of surrounding property, persons, and neighborhood values.
