All subdivision proposals must be submitted for a Pre-Application meeting. Conditional Use Permit (CUP) proposals, Zone Change requests, any proposed annexation request, or other development projects that may have a significant impact on its surrounding area or on city services may be subject to a Pre-Application meeting. At the Pre-Application meeting representatives from the different City Departments review and comment on the proposed development and its potential impact on public facilities and services and any regulations governing development in the City.
