A. When special circumstances exist which are applicable to a parcel of property upon which any interested person desires to construct a fallout shelter such as size, shape, topography, location, surroundings, access or similar physical factors which make it impossible for the applicant to comply with all zoning regulations or restrictions which would otherwise be applicable to such property, the applicant may file a verified application for a director review and approval with the planning director requesting that such regulations or restrictions be modified or waived.

B. The planning director shall hold a public hearing consistent with Section 17.64.050 (Hearings—Notices) at which time the planning director may either grant or deny the application.

C. In granting any such application the planning director may impose such conditions as deemed necessary or desirable to protect the neighborhood or adjoining properties. (Ord. 5020 § 20, 2020; prior code § 17.69.040)
