Concept Plans are documents that guide new development in a specific area of the City. They are usually used for large parcels of land that are not yet developed. City Council must approve the Concept Plan before a Development Permit and/or Subdivision Approval can be issued. Once approved, the Concept Plan becomes part of the Official Community Plan.
