(b) The commissioner shall reinstate approval of the city, town or village ordinance or local law when the commissioner is satisfied that the city, town or village will carry out the purposes and policies of this article, at which time administration and enforcement by the county pursuant to this subdivision shall cease, and the city, town or village shall administer and enforce such ordinance or local law. 8. The commissioner shall revoke his approval of a county erosion hazard area local law, or shall revoke his designation pursuant to subdivision six of this section of a county to administer and enforce a city, town or village ordinance or local law, if he determines, after notice and hearing relative thereto, that the affected county has failed to administer or enforce such ordinance or local law to adequately carry out the purposes and policies of this article. In the event of such revocation, the provisions of subdivision three of section 34-0107 of this article shall apply. 9. Where an application is made for any permit, variance or other form of approval required pursuant to any local law enacted and approved by the commissioner pursuant to this section, for any activity or development within a designated erosion hazard area, the county to which such application is made shall ascertain what, if any, other permit, variance or hearing procedures or applications are required with regard to such activity or development by any governing body of the state or its subdivisions pursuant to any federal, state or local law or ordinance. Such county, at the request of the applicant, shall consolidate and coordinate said application, permit, variance and hearing procedures, as required by each such governing authority, into a single, comprehensive hearing and review procedure with regard to such activity or development. However, nothing contained in this section shall be deemed to limit or restrict the state, its subdivisions, or any other governing authorities, which are properly a party to such consolidated review proceeding, from the independent exercise of such discretionary authority with respect to the issuance, denial or modification of such permits, variances or other forms of approval as they may have been granted by law.
