~X~I~~~~ ZONING ARTICLE 14 SITE PLAN APPROVAL PROCEDURES 1. The site plan process, including time line, is noted on the attached sheet. 2. When a use is permitted by right (in contrast to uses permitted by Special Use Permit Class A or B or use requests requiring a rezoning), the site plan review process does not include any requirement for public notice, hearing, or discussion of the proposed project unless an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is required as outlined in the County's Environmental Impact Ordinance. 3. In addition, the Planning Department and various internal and external review agencies cannot ask or require additional conditions above and beyond what is required by the Zoning Ordinance unless agreed to or volunteered by the applicant. 4. To address aspects of items 2 and 3 above the applicant can prior to submittal, independently pursue the following. The applicant is free to meet, on their own accord, with local property owner to discuss the impacts of the project and identify solutions to address neighbor or public concerns. If the applicant wishes to provide/proposes above code enhancements, they may submit to the Planning Department these proposals for review and action during the normal permit review process. Note: When the County is the applicant of a site plan request such as a park or solid waste transfer station, the process before submittal to a local .government (the County Planning Department in this case) can capture the public involvement input. The Board of County Commissioners reviews a guiding version of the site plan and approves the submittal of a concept or master plan to the local government. This plan can include whatever site plan attributes that have been developed through the County's site development input processes before the site plan submittal.
