3. Application Requirements Zoning Ordinance does not specify application materials Rezoning Application Checklist specifies application materials Site Plan showing buildings, driveways, setbacks, etc. Building elevations or renderings Typical submittal: Zoning Plan Conceptual not fully engineered Shows compliance with typical district standards (setbacks, buffers, etc.) Architectural design/engineering after zoning approval

4. Needs - - Land purchase & financing contingent on zoning approval Architecture & Engineering expensive (5 10% of total) Developer Staff City Council - - Quality product No surprises - - Permitting is non-discretionary No conflicts between zoning and code

5.

Developer wanted to wait until he had zoning before proceeding on the full engineering and architectural.
