Type A Site Plan

Pre-Submittal

Although not a requirement, applicants are encouraged to apply for a no-cost pre-submittal review meeting prior to filing the Type A Site Plan application. The pre-submittal review meeting is designed to provide the applicant with information prior to the preparation of a site plan application. The applicant may schedule a pre-submittal review by submitting a pre-submittal application to the Growth Management Department, Land Use and Environmental Services Division by 10:00am each Thursday. Apply for a pre-submittal review through the online application portal

Submittal Requirements

The deadline for filing a Type A Site Plan application is 10:00am each Thursday. All documents should also be submitted in electronic PDF form using the Standard Naming Conventions. The following information will constitute a complete application:

  • Site Plan Set
  • Project Narrative
  • Land Use Compliance Certificate (LUCC)
  • Completed Owner's Affidavit (with notary signature)
  • Preliminary Concurrency Certificate (if required)
  • Signed & Sealed Boundary Survey (with digital surveyor signature or original hardcopy stamped "verified original" by Growth Management staff)
  • School Concurrency Impact Analysis (if residential)
  • NFI or NFI Exemption Approval Letter
  • EIA Application if required by the NFI

Review

The Site Plan Reviewers meet every Thursday morning (excluding holidays) either in person or remotely via WebEx to review applications. The deadline for filing an application is the preceding Thursday, so the review time frame is 5 business days. The reviewers are comprised of representatives from the following City departments:

  • Growth Management
  • Solid Waste
  • Fire
  • Planning
  • Traffic Engineering
  • Police
  • Building
  • Gas
  • Electric Utilities
  • Underground Utilities
  • Aquifer Protection
  • Leon County School Board

Following the meeting, the applicant is provided with written comments or conditions of approval from all reviewing departments, as well as contact information for each reviewer. Any conditions of approval must be addressed before the Type A Site Plan can be approved by the Growth Management Director.

Approval

Once an applicant has received a conditional approval, revised site plans addressing all conditions should be submitted within 90 calendar days for review. One 90-day extension for submission of the revised plans may be allowed by the Land Use Administrator upon a written request by the applicant. If the revised plans are not submitted within the time frames specified, the approval shall be deemed null and void. The revised site plan is reviewed to confirm it meets the previously approved conditions of approval. Once it is determined all conditions of approval have been satisfactorily addressed, and any outstanding fees have been paid, the site plan is approved by the Growth Management Director or their designee.

Appeals

The decision of the Growth Management Director becomes final 30 calendar days after it is rendered unless a person who qualifies as a party under Chapter 2 of the City of Tallahassee Land Development Code files a petition for formal proceedings before the Tallahassee-Leon County Planning Commission in accordance with Chapter 2 of the City of Tallahassee Land Development Code.
