How to submit your new application to the Planning Division:
New applications for Zoning Plan Checks, Conditional Use Permits, Administrative Use Permits, Temporary Use Permits, and other Planning applications all require an in-person appointment for submittal. Only one application may be submitted per appointment. All appointments are conducted at the counter in-person and you must have a digital copy of the plans with you on a USB flash drive. No paper plans are accepted. Please ensure you have all documents and attachments listed on the applicable submittal checklist. Planning applications can be found here. When making the appointment, you must select the button that reads, "Planning Application Submittal." Applications with missing information and/or applicable plan pages will not be accepted.
How to submit revised plans for a re-check to the Planning Division:
If you received an incomplete letter and are re-submitting your plans, you do not need to make an in-person counter appointment; Walk-ins are accepted at the counter for submittal of revised digital plans and additional studies on a USB flash drive. After you submit your revised plans, it is highly recommended that you book an appointment directly with your assigned planner to review the revisions. (*Note- If your assigned planner is able to accommodate it, you may be able to email plans directly to your planner in-lieu of submitting at the counter, on a case-by-case basis. Please confirm receipt with your assigned planner.)General Questions:
General planning questions can be answered either in-person at the counter without an appointment OR by booking an appointment online with a planner. An appointment with a specific planner is a telephone or Microsoft Teams video session. This option cannot be utilized for application submittals.
