c. Amendment required for major changes. Any other changes in the final development plan, including any changes in the use of common open space, must be authorized by an amendment of the final development plan under the procedures for Zoning Amendments, Article 3. §154.808 Procedures for Processing a Planned Unit Development. There are four stages to the PUD process: application conference, general concept plan, preliminary plan and final plan, as described below. A. Application Conference. Upon filing of an application for PUD, the applicant of the proposed PUD shall arrange for and attend a conference with the Planning Director. The primary purpose of the conference shall be to provide the applicant with an opportunity to gather information and obtain guidance as to the general suitability of his or her proposal for the area for which it is proposed and its conformity to the provisions of this Article before incurring substantial expense in the preparation of plans, surveys and other data. B. General Concept Plan. The general concept plan provides an opportunity for the applicant to submit a plan to the city showing his or her basic intent and the general nature of the entire development without incurring substantial cost. The plan should include the following: overall density ranges, general location of residential and nonresidential land uses, their types and intensities, general location of streets, paths and open space, and approximate phasing of the development. c. Preliminary Plan. Following approval of the General Concept Plan, the applicant shall submit a Preliminary Plan application and preliminary plat, in accordance with the requirements described in Section 153.07. The application shall proceed and be acted upon in accordance with the procedures in this ordinance for zoning changes. D. Final Plan. Following approval of the Preliminary Plan, the applicant shall submit a Final Plan application and final plat, in accordance with the requirements described in Section 153.08. The application shall proceed and be acted upon in accordance with the procedures in this ordinance for zoning changes. If appropriate because of the limited scale of the proposal, the preliminary plan and final plan may proceed simultaneously. E. Schedule for Plan Approval. 1. Developer presents the General Concept Plan to the Planning Commission for their review and comment. 2. After verification by the Planning Director that the required plan and supporting data are adequate, the Planning Commission shall hold a public hearing, with public notice. 3.
