The Critical Area Affidavit is designed for applicants to disclose to the City
if there are any critical areas located on the proposed project site(s).
If you are unsure if critical areas are located on your project site(s), please
contract with a qualified professional to review on-site and surrounding
conditions and determine the presence of critical areas and/or buffers.
If such areas are present, a Critical Areas Study must be submitted as part
of the development application. Failure to accurately disclose critical areas
information may require additional review, project revisions and/or fees.
