Before filing a preliminary plat or certified survey map (minor
land division), the subdivider is encouraged to consult with the Planning
Commission for advice regarding general subdivision requirements.
Information on meeting dates, agenda deadlines and filing requirements
may be obtained from the City Clerk-Treasurer. The subdivider shall
also submit a location map showing the relationship of the proposed
subdivision to traffic arteries and existing community facilities.
This consultation is neither formal nor mandatory but is intended
to inform the subdivider of the purpose and objectives of these regulations,
the Comprehensive Plan, Comprehensive Plan components and duly adopted
plan implementation devices of the City and otherwise to assist the
subdivider in planning his development. In so doing, both the subdivider
and planning agency may reach mutual conclusions regarding the general
program and objectives of the proposed development and its possible
effects on the neighborhood and community. The subdivider will gain
a better understanding of the subsequent required procedures.
