§ 17.104.030 — Land use permits, conditional use permits, subdivisions, variances, and legislative change requests

17.104.030 Land use permits, conditional use permits, subdivisions, variances, and legislative change requests.

Prior to issuance of a building permit, a developer, homeowner, or builder must obtain approval of the specific development project as provided in this title. A project must receive site plan and design review approval and be consistent with the land use designations of the general plan, any applicable specific plan, and with the zoning district in which it is located. If the use proposed for the development requires special consideration to be compatible with surrounding uses, a conditional use permit is required. If the development request does not fully comply with the regulations of this title, approval of a deviation from design guidelines or development standards, or a variance, is required. Approvals to subdivide land, including tentative maps, tentative map design deviations, post-tentative map design deviations, lot line adjustments, and mergers, are governed by this title.
