Appendix C

Appendix C includes flow charts that illustrate the process that is followed in reviewing various types of development related applications. The charts are arranged in the following order:

CHART A A series of questions with answer blanks to help determine, for a proposed new use, what type of permit or certificate approval will be required.

CHART B A Timeline showing the approximate time frame needed to process Type I, II, or III permits or certificates. These processes are applicable to Zoning Certificates, Sign Permits, Housing Certificates, Conditional Use Permits, Land Subdivision Permits, Site Planning Permits, and General Development Plans.

CHART C Copies of Applications

CHART D A Checklist of ordinance provisions to review to insure that all relevant issues have been addressed prior to submitting an application.

CHART E Zoning Certificate Worksheet
