A. Within 30 calendar days the city will complete an initial review of the application to determine whether the application contains sufficient information as outlined in ACC 20.08.020 to proceed with processing. Once satisfied that the proposal is clear, and if the city in its sole discretion determines that it is in the city’s interests to negotiate a lease, the director or designee responsible for the property will determine whether additional information is needed. If, during the 30-calendar-day review period, the application is deemed incomplete, the city will issue a letter to the applicant specifying the additional information necessary in order to proceed with processing. The applicant will be given 30 calendar days to respond. Once the additional information is received by the city, an additional 14 calendar days will be allowed to determine whether the application is complete. Once the application is determined complete, written notice will be provided. If a response is not timely received, the application will be returned to the applicant with a notice that the application is rejected due to failure to provide the required information. Any new applications will require a new application fee, if applicable.

B. When satisfied that the application is complete, the director or designee responsible for the property will issue a letter of completeness and notify the applicant of the process for consideration of the matter by the city council. Once an acceptable draft lease agreement has been prepared, the city clerk will schedule a hearing before the city council, if applicable, and the city clerk will notify the applicant in writing of the scheduled hearing.
