Application review - Council recommendation and commission decision

The council shall consider, but is not bound by, a recommendation of the technical review committee. The council shall make a recommendation on each application to the commission. The council shall make its recommendation to the commission within thirty days of its receipt of the technical review committee's recommendation, though the commission may extend this time if the council needs more time to properly review the application. The commission shall consider, but is not bound by, a recommendation of the council. Though the commission makes the decision to approve or reject all applications, the commission may only approve those applications that have received a favorable council recommendation.
