Administrative Review
Section 26.410.020.B. of the Land Use Code requires an Administrative Review for compliance with the Residential Design Standards (RDS) for
all residential projects, unless otherwise exempted pursuant to Section 26.410.010.C.
All residential projects affecting the exterior of the building shall submit for RDS Administrative Review prior to building permit submittal. If
exterior work is proposed, and the scope of work meets one of the exemptions listed above, staff shall provide a signed exemption form to be
included in the building permit application.
Review Process:
The Community Development Department staff shall review an application for applicability and compliance with Chapter 26.410, Residential
Design Standards. If the application complies with all applicable standards as written, a signed Checklist and stamped plan set shall be provided
to the applicant to be included with building permit submission.
If the application does not comply with one or more applicable standards, an unsigned Checklist and redlined plan set shall be emailed to the
applicant including comments from staff on which standard(s) the application does not comply with and a description of why the standard(s) is
not compliant. The applicant shall be provided the opportunity to revise and resubmit the design in response to the comments. Staff will keep an
application open for 30 days from the date an unsigned Checklist is emailed to the applicant. If after such time no revisions are submitted, the
application will expire.
Application for RDS Administrative Review:
An application for RDS Administrative Review that DOES NOT require Alternative Compliance (see Page 2) shall be submitted to the Community
Development front desk on a USB drive or emailed to planneroftheday@gmail.com. Applicants will be notified of received application by email
and if additional documents are required. Certain application requirements may be waived by staff depending on the scope of work.
An application for RDS Administrative Review shall include the following documents in digital format:
• Site improvement survey certified by a registered land surveyor (no older than one year from submittal date)
• Proposed Site plan (scaled 24”x36”)
• Proposed Floor plans (scaled 24”x36”)
• Proposed Elevations (scaled 24”x36”)
• Existing Elevations if a remodel (scaled 24”x36”)
• Complete scope of work noting all exterior areas affected by the proposed project
• Complete RDS applicant checklist (attached) addressing how each standard is met with sheet references for each standard

Alternative Compliance or Variation:
Pursuant to 26.410.020.C, projects that do not meet the criteria for Administrative Review or Alternative Compliance (as determined by staff)
may be reviewed by the Planning & Zoning Commission, or HPC if appropriate, at the applicant’s request. An applicant may choose to apply
directly for a Variation from the Planning & Zoning Commission or Historic Preservation Commission, pursuant to Chapter 26.410.020.C.
A pre-application summary will be required for an Alternative Compliance or Variation request.
Application for Alternative Compliance or Variation:
An application for Alternative Compliance or a Variation will require a pre-application summary provided by Community Development staff,
and shall be submitted as a Land Use Application. Required application submittal items shall be outlined in the pre-application summary.
