Sec. 7. (a) Upon the adoption of the declaratory resolution by the board, the resolution, together with the supporting data, shall be submitted to the metropolitan development commission. The commission may determine whether the declaratory resolution and the proposed parking facility improvement plan conform to all zoning ordinances of the consolidated city, and approve as adopted, modify, or disapprove the resolution and proposed parking facility. The declaratory resolution and the proposed plan of improvement may be amended or modified in order to conform them to the requirements of the commission.

The board shall then submit the proceedings to the city executive for the city executive’s approval and may not proceed with the acquisition of the proposed site until the approving orders of the executive, the commission, and the building administrator are issued. In determining the location and character of any proposed parking facility, the board and commission shall consider traffic conditions, the effect of the proposed parking facility on surrounding property, and any unusual hardship to those interested in the property.
