2 CITY OF RICHMOND | POD Application | Last Revised September 7, 2018
A plan of development is required to be fi led for certain land uses as specifi ed in the City’s Zoning Ordinance and
must be approved by the Director of Planning and Development Review prior to the issuance of any Building
Permit or a Land Disturbing Permit.
The plan of development is reviewed for compliance with the City’s Master Plan, for preservation of landscape,
for arrangement of buildings and spaces, for functions of yards and spaces, and for parking and circulation. This
review is in addition to the intensity, yard, parking, height and other requirements set forth in the City’s Zoning
Ordinance that are normally applicable to the proposed development. The review process is intended to ensure
that the development will be compatible with its surroundings and will have the lowest reasonable impact on the
surrounding properties, streets and alleys.
The Division of Land Use Administration circulates the plan of development to appropriate City agencies as
determined necessary. City agencies reviewing the plan of development may include: Public Works, Permits &
Inspections, Public Utilities, Water Resources, Zoning, and Fire and Emergency Services. The Division of Land Use
Administration will coordinate responses by City agencies. Written comments will be provided generally within
30 days of the application submittal date.
If an incomplete plan of development has been submitted or if additional information is required, the review
period may be extended to allow appropriate review. Land Use Administration will circulate revised plans as it
determines necessary and will provide any additional comments and recommendations to the applicant within 2
weeks. Following action by the Director of Planning and Development Review, the applicant will be formally
notifi ed as to approval, disapproval or conditional approval of the plan of development.
Approval of a plan of development does not relieve the applicant from their responsibility to fulfi ll other legal
obligations including, but not exclusively, obligations under the City’s Zoning and Encroachment Codes and the
State Building Code.
Applicant Certifi cation of Completeness:
I do hereby certify that I have read and am familiar with the requirements for the submission of plans of
development as provided under Section 30-1030.0 of the Zoning Ordinance and further that this submittal is in
compliance with those requirements and applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance for the zone in which this
project is located, or variances and/or special use permits have been properly requested or granted in accordance
with Sections 30-1040.0 & 30-1050.0 of the Zoning Ordinance.
