request for additional information is made, the 30 day period to issue a decision is stayed until the applicant responds to the request.

The written determination on whether to grant or deny the request for reasonable accommodation shall be made by the authority responsible for reviewing the discretionary land use application in compliance with the applicable review procedure for the discretionary review.

17. 30. 740 Findings, decision, and conditions.

A. Findings and Decision. The written decision to grant or deny a request for reasonable
accommodation shall be consistent with the Acts and shall be based on consideration of the following factors:

1. Whether the housing, which is the subject of the request, will be used by an individual with a disability protected under the Acts.

2. Whether the request for reasonable accommodation is necessary to make specific housing available to an individual with a disability under the Acts.

Article 4 IL- LG: Limited Industrial Zoning District

17. 58. 040 Purposes and application.

The IL- LG district is intended to provide opportunities for certain types of limited industrial uses to concentrate in mutually beneficial relationships to each other; to provide adequate space to meet the needs of modern industrial development, including off- street parking and truck loading areas; and to provide industrial employment opportunities for residents of the city and region. The IL district is intended to protect areas appropriate for industrial use from intrusion by residences and other inharmonious uses; to protect residential, commercial and nuisance - free, nonhazardous industrial uses from noise, odor, dust, dirt, smoke, vibration, heat, glare, fire, explosion, noxious fumes, radiation, hazardous chemicals and other hazardous and objectionable influences incidental to certain industrial uses; and to reserve appropriately located areas for various types of industrial plants and related activities. Land requirements for most limited industrial uses generally dictate a location with close access to major transit corridors and highways without the need for high visibility.

17. 58. 041 Permitted uses.

A. Off- street parking lots improved in conformity with Chapter 17. 76 shall be permitted.
