Limitations, Conditions and Restrictions
In granting a zoning amendment, the city council may limit the change to one of the permitted uses in the zone to which the subject land is rezoned, and impose limitations, including without limitation:
- (1) Requiring the petitioner to obtain a permit or approval from any and all state or local governmental agencies or instrumentalities having jurisdiction over the land and use which are the subject of the zoning change;
- (2) Relating to the effectiveness or continued effectiveness of the zoning change; and/or
- (3) Relating to the use of the land as it deems necessary.
17.6-1 Recording of Limitations, Conditions and Restrictions. The city clerk shall cause the limitations and conditions so imposed by the city council to be noted on the zoning map and recorded in the land evidence records, provided, however, that in the case of a conditional zone change, the limitations, restrictions and conditions shall not be noted on the zoning map until the zone change has become effective.
17.6-2 Abandonment. If the permitted use for which the land has been rezoned is abandoned, or if the land is not used for the requested purpose for a period of two (2) years or more after the zone change becomes effective, the city council may, after a public hearing as herein set forth, change the land to its original zoning use before such petition was filed.
