1. Idea
“What do you want to do and where do you want to do it?”
Once you have a preliminary plan ask questions to the development team to determine what the required planning documents will be and what permits you will need prior to the start of construction.
Major Development 5,000 sf+ of impervious surface or any road or utility extension
Minor Development less than 5,000 sf of impervious surface and no utility extension
Changing site contours or laying gravel or pavement
Inter Departmental Construction
Any Activity within a Floodplain
Subdivision
Planned Unit Development
2. Planning Documents
Drawings of your site and buildings depending on the scale of the project may need to be designed and stamped by a licensed professional.
Planning Documents may also include construction schedules, methods of pollution control and details about material storage and equipment parked in the floodplain.
