A.

Upon review, the planning commission may affirm the decision of the director of planning or reverse or modify the director of planning's decision if: 1. The decision was based on a clearly erroneous finding of a material fact or error of law; or 2. The decision was arbitrary, or capricious, or characterized by abuse of discretion; or 3. The proposed design plan maintains the design integrity of the B-CT country town business district. B. The appeal of the director's determination shall be placed on the next available commission agenda as a non-public hearing item. (Ord. No. 4153, § 2, 2014)
