For all permitted uses after special approval, the planning commission shall conduct a public hearing prior to making a decision on the proposed use. The planning commission may impose such requirements and conditions as may be necessary to protect neighboring property; promote public convenience, health, safety and welfare; or make the use conform more closely with the spirit, purpose and intent of this chapter. In determining other requirements and whether the proposed use is essential and desirable, the following information shall be considered by the planning commission:

(1)

The possible substantial and permanent effect on neighboring property.

(2)

The consistency with the spirit, purpose and intent of the chapter.

(3)

The possible effect upon traffic as related to the streets, churches, schools and any buildings within the immediate area.

(4)

The tendency of the proposed use to create any type of blight within the immediate area.

(5)

The economic feasibility for the area.

(6)

Any other factor as may relate to the public health, safety and welfare for persons and property.
