The governing body may from time to time amend or supplement the regulations and districts
fixed by any zoning ordinance adopted pursuant to this Act. Proposed changes may be
suggested by the governing body, by the planning commission, by the hearing examiner,
or by petition of the owners of 50 percent or more of the area involved in the proposed
change. In the latter case, the petitioner or petitioners may be required to assume
the cost of public notice and other costs incidental to the hearings.
(b)
The planning commission, regardless of the source of the proposal for change, shall
hold a public hearing or hearings thereon, with due public notice, and submit its
recommendation on the proposed change to the governing body, except that the county
planning commission may only render recommendations for those proposed changes which
pertain to the county and which would change the actual list of permitted, conditional,
or prohibited uses within a zoning category, or otherwise would alter or amend provisions
of the county's codified land development regulations. The governing body shall hold
a public hearing or hearings thereon, and shall act on the recommendation. No change
in the zoning ordinance shall become effective except by an affirmative vote of four-fifths
of the full membership of the governing body.
