Zoning clearance is the procedure used by the city to verify that a proposed land use or structure complies with the list of uses allowed in the applicable zone and the development standards applicable to the use or structure. (Ord. 24-01 §2(Exh. A-1)).

17.74.020 Applicability.

A zoning clearance shall be required for all structures identified, erected, constructed, altered, or moved within or into any zone established by this code, or for any use or activity which requires a building permit. A zoning clearance shall not be required when the building permit was issued via the approval of another planning permit, e.g., site plan review, conditional use permit, or development plan. (Ord. 24-01 §2(Exh. A-1)).

17.74.030 Review and decision.

No building permit shall be issued until a zoning clearance has been obtained from the planning division, and any other necessary permits required by this title have been issued and have become effective. (Ord. 24-01 §2(Exh. A-1)).
