This section of the Code is outdated and could pose problems concerning the <br />requirements for entering into a development contract. Requirements of other cities have been <br />reviewed and included in this report. <br />Discassion <br />The questions that should be addressed by the Planning Commission include: <br />1.

Currently, these proj ects <br />are reviewed by the apprapriate Community Development staff to ensure compliance with <br />applicable building and zoning codes. <br />The City of Roseville requires a development review for any construction in all zoning <br />districts except R-1 and R-2, thus eliminating the need for review of single-family or twin- <br />family housing: <br />A. New Construction: For all new construction in all zoning districts exceptR-1 <br />and R-2, a site plan must be submitted for review by the Development Revrew <br />committee. The required plans submissions and level ofdetail shall be in accordance <br />with the city's Developrnent Review procedures manual. <br />B. Repairs, RemodelingAnd Additions: A site plan review is also required for all <br />
