Sketch Plat
The Planning Department offers "sketch plats" to review subdivision requests prior to application. During a sketch plat, the Development Review Board 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 discuss with the DRB at the meeting.
The Integrated Development Ordinance requires a pre-application meeting for major subdivisions. See Table 6-1-1 for "Subdivision of Land - Major."
Applying for a Sketch Plat
The sketch plat process involves submitting the following items to the Development Review Services front counter:
- Development Review Application
- Form S2
- Zone Atlas page that includes the project site
- A brief letter describing what the applicant wants to do
- 7 copies of a scaled drawing of the proposed subdivision plat and site sketch showing existing conditions
- The application fee of $50
Deadlines are weekly on Tuesdays at noon to be placed on the following Wednesday DRB agenda (with some exceptions on the calendar around holidays).
