In reviewing the conditional use permit, the planning commission shall consider the following criteria:

(1) Whether or not the overall site design and the floor plans of individual rooms proposed are conducive to extended occupancy.

(2) Whether or not adequate parking and other amenities are provided to support extended occupancy.

(3) Whether or not the renting of rooms for more than twenty-eight (28) consecutive days is likely to lead to or, in the case of existing motels, has lead to, police problems due to the design of the motel and/or the nature of the surrounding area.

(b) In applying for the conditional use permit, the owner/operator shall determine the number and/or percentage of rooms to be offered for extended occupancy. The planning commission may approve the request as submitted or may establish an alternate number and/or percentage based upon the review of the above criteria.
