(b) Two or more applications involving the same building site or the same project requiring commission action may be considered concurrently by the commission, provided that the commission decision on each application shall be issued separately by the commission. (c) An action to amend this chapter may be considered concurrently with other administrative and commission actions, but an application to amend this chapter must be filed independently of other applications for administrative or commission action, and any decision on an application for an amendment to this chapter shall be issued separately from decisions on other administrative or commission requests.
