Procedures and Requirements for Site Plan Review:
1. Sketch Plan. A sketch plan conference may be held between the Planning Board staff and the applicant prior to the preparation and submission of a formal site plan. The intent of such a conference is to enable the applicant to inform the Planning Board staff of the proposal prior to the preparation of a detailed site plan; and for the Planning Board staff to review the basic site design concept, advise the applicant as to potential problems and concerns and to generally determine the information to be required on the site plan. In order to accomplish these objectives, the applicant should provide the following:
a. A statement and rough sketch showing the locations and dimensions of principal and accessory structures, parking areas, access signs (with descriptions), existing and proposed vegetation, and other planned features; anticipated changes in the existing topography and natural features; and, where applicable, measures and features to comply with flood hazard and flood insurance regulations;
b. A sketch or map of the area which clearly shows the location of the site with respect to nearby streets rights-of-way, properties, easements and other pertinent features; and
c. A topographic or contour map or adequate scale and detail to show site topography
2. Application for site plan approval. Applications for Site Plan Review are made through the Code Enforcement Office. Please refer to the application for directions. Applications may be downloaded here: Site Plan Application.
