Prior to the official filing of a preliminary plat, the subdivider
should avail himself of a copy of the Subdivision Ordinance and should
prepare a sketch plan of the proposed subdivision. The subdivider
should submit four (4) copies of the sketch plan to the Director of
Public Works and/or other administrative officer so designated by
the City Manager. Preparation and presentation of the sketch plan
is not mandatory and no approvals, either tentative or final, will
be given on sketch plans; however, their preparation is recommended
as an economy measure.
This phase does not require formal applications, payment of
a fee, or the filing of a plat, but is rather an informal consultation
with the City, in order that the subdivider may save himself time
and money in the preparation of the preliminary and final plats by
determining the rules, regulations and policies adopted by the City.
The aim and purpose of the pre-application procedure is to offer
the developer or subdivider the background and experience of the City
Staff in the preparation of the preliminary plat. It is not the intent
or policy of this Ordinance for City Staff to do the planning or engineering
for the subdivider, but rather to steer his efforts into the most
efficient and economical means of coordination with the Subdivision
Ordinance.

The subdivider should present such general subdivision information
as will outline the existing conditions of the site, utilities, and
available community facilities. A simple rough sketch should indicate
the location of the proposed subdivision, number of residential lots,
typical lot width and depth, commercial areas, park and playground
areas, proposed protective covenants or restrictions, and proposed
utilities and street improvements.

At the time the sketch plan is presented to the Director of
Public Works, a preliminary conference should be held for the general
comments and clarifications which are usually necessary. At that time,
the subdivider should obtain copies of all forms, publications, design
criteria and standards available from the City for his reference and
for the benefit of his engineer.
