This chapter contemplates an administrative and enforcement
officer titled the "Zoning Administrator" to administer and enforce
the same. Certain considerations, particularly with regard to granting
of permitted conditional uses, planned unit development conditional
uses, changes in Zoning Map, and amending the text of this chapter,
require review and recommendation by the Planning Commission and ultimate
action by the Common Council. A Zoning Board of Appeals is provided
to assure proper administration of this chapter and to avoid arbitrariness.
The following fees shall be applicable for this chapter:
A. Rezoning application: as set by the Common Council per application
