• <br />2 <br />RECOMMENDATION: Article 20.3.3 of the Zoning Ordinance <br />requires the Zoning Officer to present <br />recommendations to the Planning Board within <br />30 days of receipt of an application. The <br />30 -day period may be extended up to 60 days <br />with the written consent of the applicant. <br />The public hearing is the time scheduled for <br />presentation of the Zoning Officer's <br />recommendation. <br />Zoning Officer's Recommendations <br />The Zoning Officer has reviewed the <br />application, the site plan and all supporting <br />documentation and has found that no error was <br />made in respect to this property in the <br />Zoning Atlas when zoning was adopted for <br />Bingham Township on September 2, 1992. <br />Provided the Planning Board and County <br />Commissioners find in the negative, the <br />Zoning Officer recommends disapproval of the <br />request. <br />No decision on the application is made by <br />either the Planning Board or County <br />Commissioners at the public hearing. <br />Instead, the Planning Board has 60 days <br />within which to prepare and submit a <br />recommendation to the County Commissioners. <br />Failure of the Planning Board to submit a <br />recommendation within the required time shall <br />be considered a favorable recommendation, <br />without conditions. <br />Administration Recommendation <br />The Administration recommends that the <br />application be referred to the Planning Board <br />for a recommendation to be returned to the <br />Board of County Commissioners no sooner than <br />October S, 1992. <br />
