Project Plan
Definition:
New project plans are no longer accepted. Project Plan amendments are the only form of Project Plan that is still reviewed. Before submitting an application, applicants must meet with planning staff and receive an amendment checklist that outlines the required submission items. A Project Plan sets the development density, height limit, and public amenities for optional method projects in the CBD zones under the 2004 Zoning Ordinance.
Forest Conservation:
Forest conservation does not need to be addressed with this plan type.
Development Review Committee (DRC):
Project plan amendments typically go to DRC.
Decision Type:
Varies by project. Project Plan applications for major amendments typically receive a full Planning Board hearing. Minor amendments may be acted on administratively.
Fees:
Project Plan fees vary by project specifications. Consult page 4 of our fee schedule to determine fee.
Amendments:
Project Plans may only be submitted as amendments. Before submitting an application, applicants must meet with planning staff and receive an amendment checklist that outlines the required submission items.
