Site Plan Review is an administrative process through the Site Plan Review Committee. The Committee is comprised of members of my Village Departments, including Public Safety, Public Services, Zoning, Community Planning and Economic Development.
Site Plan Review provides the Village with an opportunity to review the proposed use of a site plan in relation to all applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance and Village planning. Site Plan Review also provides the Village with an opportunity to review the relationship of the plan to surrounding uses, accessibility, on and off-site pedestrian and vehicular circulation, off-street parking, public utilities, drainage, natural features, screening, and other relevant factors which may have an impact on the public health, safety and general welfare.
A site plan is required for review by the Planning Commission and any applicable departments per Section 1001 of the zoning ordinance whenever one (1) or more of the following conditions apply:
- As part of an application for a special use permit
- Any change in use which requires construction of five (5) or more additional parking spaces
- As part of an application for approval of a condominium development
- Any other construction or moving of structures except:
- Single family and duplex residences on individual parcels and their accessory structures
- Non-residential accessory structures under five hundred (500) square feet
- Expansions of under five hundred (500) square feet to existing structures
