Determining What Will Be Required for Development Plan Review
The City Planning Office can help you determine what would be required for development plan review and assist applicants with that process. Landowners and tenants within 300 linear feet of a proposed development are notified of the project via mail. The Planning Commission reviews the project for compliance with the zoning ordinance and forwards a recommendation on to City Council, who is the final decision maker. For more information on the development plan review process please contact the Planning Office and review Section 5.188 of the zoning ordinance.
