Development Initiation Meeting Process
The purpose of a Development Initiation Meeting is to give an applicant the opportunity to
discuss a development proposal with the development review staff of the City. The discussion
can be general or specific, depending on the details provided with the application. A
Development Initiation Meeting provides information to an applicant related to the current
development conditions and standards of the City. The Development Initiation Meeting is not a
land use decision and does not confer any development rights, establish any conditions, or bind
the applicant or the City to any course of action. The meeting conveys the status of known
development opportunities and constraints. The status may change over time as development
conditions or standards change.
