MDS approvals shall ensure compliance with specific appearance; transportation safety and efficiency, and stormwater management standards of this Code or other applicable regulations as necessary to protect the public health, safety and welfare. . Minimum Development Standards include the following range of review procedures which shall be applied subject to applicability and locational standards contained herein. The Director shall determine the appropriate MDS approach from the following list of MDS review procedures: • A. Building Permit Only (BPO).
