Every decisionmaker for a project shall consider all environmental impact reports for a project prior to approving or disapproving a project. The environmental data supplied by these reports and by any other means may be used by the decisionmaker as follows:

A. Authorization of a project may be denied if, in the opinion of the city council and the decisionmaker:

1. Its adverse environmental effect outweighs its beneficial environmental effect; or

2. A feasible alternative exists having a lesser adverse environmental effect.

B. A project may be authorized subject to conditions reasonably calculated to:

1. Minimize the adverse environmental effect of the project; or

2. Maximize the beneficial effect of the project. (Ord. 122 § 5.7, 1973)
