Site Plan
Description A site plan review involves a detailed analysis of a proposed development project to ensure it meets specific standards in the City's zoning regulations.
 
Depending on the size and scope of the proposed project, the petitioner’s application submittal may consist of a few drawings or a complete plan set with architectural drawings, engineered plans, landscaping plans, and outdoor lighting schematics.
 
Aside from zoning review, the petitioner’s application may also be reviewed by other departments, such as engineering, utilities, public works, fire, and police, to ensure their concerns, if any, are addressed during the review process.
 
If a project is approved, the developer or property owner must comply with the terms and conditions in the approval before beginning construction.

Decisionmaker Plan Commission makes the final decision

Appeals The Plan Commission's decision can be appealed to the circuit court.

Calendar Notes
1. In order for an application to be heard on a given meeting date, the application (including forms, fees, plans, reports, etc.) must be submitted AND deemed complete by City staff on or before the corresponding submittal date. Because of that, you may want to submit your application before the submittal date. That way, we may be able to let you know if anything is missing and you'll have some time to perhaps get it done before the deadline.
2. Meeting dates and their corresponding submittal dates are subject to change.

About Reviewers
The following are involved in the review of this type of application.

The Plan Commission is a 7-member body established by the City Council to review certain development projects and act on other matters. Depending on the type of the development proposal, the commission may be advisory to the City Council or have the authority to make the final decision. Two members also serve on the City Council; the remaining members are city residents.

The Development Assistance Group (DAG) is a staff-level committee that meets with developers, architects, engineers, and other interested parties who want early feedback on a potential development proposal. Staff represent the Planning Division, Building Division, Engineering Division, and the fire department.

Planning staff provides technical support to the City Council, Plan Commission, Historic Commission, Zoning Board of Appeals, developers, neighbors, and other interested parties to facilitate the development review process.
