If, from the facts presented, the Commission finds that the public necessity, convenience, general welfare or good zoning practice requires the adoption or modification of a portion of the comprehensive zoning law or the classification or reclassification of property to any zone, the Commission may recommend, by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the total membership of the Commission, by resolution, the adoption of an ordinance by the City Council adopting or modifying a comprehensive zoning law, or classifying or reclassifying property into particular zones. The Commission may recommend the inclusion of property in particular zones as requested by the applicant, or the inclusion of the property into any other more restrictive zone as defined and classified in this title, or into any of the commercial zones which are equally restrictive. For the purpose of determining the restrictiveness of zones, the order in which a zone appears in this title shall govern: the lower the number of the section, the more restrictive the zone is in relation to other zones established by this title. If such required findings cannot be made, the Commission shall deny the application. (Ord. 3153 § 2 (Exh. A), 2010; Ord. 1212 § 1, 1969; prior code § 33.1203).
