Sketch Plat
The Planning Department offers "sketch plats" to review subdivision requests prior to application. During a sketch plat, the Development Facilitation Team (DFT) can give information and feedback about the feasibility of a specific request or any considerations that applicants should keep in mind as they prepare their applications. Applicants will receive written comments that they can discuss at a meeting with DFT staff should they (applicants) elect to have a meeting with DFT staff.
The Integrated Development Ordinance requires a pre-application meeting for major subdivisions. See Table 6-1-1 for "Subdivision of Land - Major."
