Site Plan Review Checklist
All site plans shall contain the following information so the
Planning Commission can adequately review the proposed use or activity.
The type or level of information may vary depending upon the scale,
scope, or nature of the request. The information shall be presented in
sufficient detail to describe adequate dimensions to show the size and
placement of all proposed structures, and adequate contour elevations to
determine the existing and proposed configuration of the site for
engineering purposes. The information shall also be provided in
sufficient detail to determine the demand on the capacities of public
services and facilities.
