The Conceptual Site Plan Review Process establishes the framework for development on a site. It also allows for the City and the Applicant to create unique criteria for development on a specific property.
Conceptual Site Plan review and approval is required prior to or concurrent with the approval of zoning or rezoning or when a Subdivision Plat is required. The approved Conceptual Site Plan is valid for a period of three years after City Council action.
The review and approval of the Conceptual Site Plan is to ensure:
- Compliance with zoning and other development regulations of the City;
- Establishing performance criteria and standards adopted by the City Council; and
- Achieving quality development on the ground through the review and use of a Conceptual Site Plan that will represent the actual development to occur on the site.
The Conceptual Site Plan identifies the site plan, architecture, landscaping, etc.
