The following procedure is established to provide procedures for review of a proposed use by the board of zoning appeals. The procedure shall be the same whether review is required by chapters 2 through 7 of this title or whether a review is requested by the building inspector to determine whether a proposed use is potentially noxious, dangerous, or offensive.

1. Application. An application shall be filed with the board of zoning appeals for review. Said application shall show the location and intended uses of the site, the names of the property owners and existing land uses within two hundred (200) feet, and any other material pertinent to the request which the board of zoning appeals may require.
2. Restrictions. In the exercise of its approval, the board of zoning appeals may impose such conditions regarding the location, character, or other features of the proposed uses or buildings as it may deem advisable in the furtherance of the general purposes of the zoning code.
3. Validity of plans. All approved plans, conditions, restrictions, and rules made a part of the approval of the board of zoning appeals shall constitute certification on the part of the applicant that the proposed use shall conform to such regulations at all times.

   1. Is so designed, located, and proposed to be operated that the public health, safety, and welfare will be protected;
