The following ordinances are pertinent for this review: Section 11.10, Subd. 6, 7. and 8 - Sketch plan. Members are once again advised that the purpose of a sketch plan is to allow for preliminary development plans to be presented to the Planning Commission whereby the applicant receives conceptual direction from the City for preparing a formal application and, hopefully, will result in a saving of time and money. Applicants can gauge the feasibility of an application by the comments and directions received from the Planning Commission. Normally sketch plans are only reviewed by the Planning Commission and only under special conditions will the sketch plan reviews be presented to the Council.
