The Hearing Examiner shall conduct public hearings on behalf of and in some cases make recommendations to the City Council as described in RZC Chapter 21.76, Review Procedures, or as delegated by the Council. In carrying out the duties, the Examiner shall review available information, maintain an accurate record of the proceedings, determine findings of fact from the record, and form conclusions in support of recommendations and decisions. The findings and conclusions shall also set forth the manner in which the recommendation or decision carries out and conforms to the regulations, goals and policies of the Redmond Zoning Code. The Examiner shall have the power to issue summons to compel the appearance of witnesses, to preserve order, to reconsider decisions, and shall be free from the interference of individual City Council members, Planning Commission members, City officials, or any other person. The Hearing Examiner may also exercise administrative powers and such other quasi-judicial powers as may be granted by the City Council. On a periodic basis or as the need arises, the Examiner shall provide a report to the Planning Commission and Director of Planning and Community Development on recommended changes to the Redmond Zoning Code, the resolution of conflicts within it, and additions that address omissions.
