a floor plan, but detailed drawings and perspectives are not required.

submission requirements have been satisfied and conforms with the recommendations of the Comprehensive
Plan including the Planning Principles and Design Guidelines. For purposes of this section, lack of “substantial
compliance” shall have the same meaning as “substantial or significant changes” as set forth in Section
17.332.I.2.
In the event the Planning Commission determines the proposed final development plan is not in substantial
compliance with the approved preliminary site development and the recommendations of the Comprehensive
Plan including the Planning Principles and Design Guidelines, the application may not be considered except at a

significant changes” as defined in Section 17.332.I.2.
K. Abandonment of Final Development Plan. In the event that a plan or a section thereof is given final approval and
thereafter the landowner abandons said plan or the section thereof, then the landowner shall so notify the City in
writing, or in the event the landowner fails to commence the planned development within 2 years after final approval
has been granted, then in either event such final approval shall terminate and shall be deemed null and void unless
such time period as extended by the approving authority upon written application by the landowner. Whenever a
final plan or section thereof has been abandoned as provided in this section, no development shall take place on the
property until a new final development plan has been approved.
L. Street Trees and Master Landscape Plan in accordance with Section 17.358.G and Section 17.358.H.
