A site plan is a detailed graphic and written document that shows how a site will be developed. It is a legally binding, professionally prepared proposal for the use and development of a parcel of land.

A site plan shall be required for all townhouse, multifamily, non-residential construction (including mixed use) and planned unit developments. The introduction of a new use to an existing site may also require site plan approval.

A site plan review can take up to a month.

A Pre-Application Conference (PAC) is encouraged. 

For Approved Site Plans, see the Approved Site Plans page.
