Notwithstanding any other provision of this code, no application for a general plan amendment, zone change, tentative subdivision map, tentative parcel map, coastal use permit, use permit, site development permit, variance or any other discretionary permit or approval for the development or use of property shall be approved or conditionally approved unless the approving authority finds that the application as approved or conditionally approved is consistent with the portions of the San Diego County hazardous waste management plan which identify general areas or siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. (Ord. 159 § l, 1992)
17.90.030 Authority to impose appropriate conditions.
A. The approving authority may impose any appropriate condition which it determines to be reasonably necessary in order to find that an application subject to SBMC 17.90.020 is consistent with the portions of the San Diego County hazardous waste management plan which identify general areas or siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities.

C. Nothing in this section shall be construed to preclude an approving authority from denying an application, permit or other land use approval for which the approving authority does not make the finding required under SBMC 17.90.020 or which the approving authority finds is contrary to the public health, safety or welfare.
