7.4 Submission and Approval Process

The Concept Plan provides an opportunity for the applicant, Town Staff and Planning Commission to meet and discuss the proposed project in the conceptual stage. The applicant can use the Concept Plan meeting to ask questions of the Planning Commission and Town Staff, and receive some direction on development design and layout. At the Concept Plan meeting the Town Staff and Planning Commission will inform the applicant of the uses which are allowed in the zone. The Planning Commission may also discuss the procedure for approval of a commercial development and the specifications and requirements as to general design and layout of streets, reservations of land, street improvements, drainage, water, sewerage, fire protection, mitigation of environmental impacts as determined, and similar matters, as well as the availability of existing services. The Planning Commission may also advise the applicant, where appropriate, to discuss the proposed development with those agencies who must eventually approve those aspects of the Final Plat within their jurisdiction, including but limited to, the current Wasatch Fire District, Wasatch School District, and the various utility service providers. Neighbors of the planned project should also be consulted to get their views and concerns.
