• Developer Packet
• Final Plat Recordation Checklist

Below is the Planning Review Checklist used to review every land use application for compliance with City Code Title 19: Land Development Code. Each item correlates directly to City Code, but City Code will override the checklist in case of any conflict. Reviewing relevant sections of this checklist as you prepare your application may help streamline the review process.

• Application Review Checklist 11.24.2025
• Notice: This checklist is not the code and does not imply vesting. It is updated frequently. Check the most recent Application Review Checklist prior to submitting any new application.
