City of Page - Development Plan Review Submittal Process
City of Page - Development Plan Review Submittal Process
Adopted Date: June 14, 2017
Development Plan Review Submittal Process:
The development plan review process was adopted by the City of Page City Council on June 14, 2017. This
process applies to all proposed commercial, industrial, and subdivision developments within the City of Page.
Submittal Process overview: The submittal process includes 4 steps: (1) pre-application meeting, (2) site plan
submittal, (3) construction plan submittal, and (4) as-built plans, only required for public improvements. (For
smaller, uncomplicated sites the site plan and construction plan submittals can be combined into a single
submittal. The developer can make this request at the pre-application meeting. Determination will be made
by the City after the pre-application meeting. For larger more complicated sites additional steps may be
required, including but not limited to master planning level documents. Additional steps will be identified at
or after the pre-application meeting.)
Step 1 - Pre-application meeting:
1. The development applicant should schedule a pre-application meeting with the City through the City’s
Planning and Zoning Community Development Coordinator.
2. City staff/departments will meet with the applicant to discuss the proposed development.
3. The City recommends that the applicant furnish City staff with the following information digitally (in pdf
format) 1-week prior to the pre-application meeting:
a. Aerial photo of the site and location map.
b. A concept level drawing/sketch of the proposed development.
c. A written scope of work describing the project and relevant building and engineering issues.
d. Photos showing the site from all angles, looking into and out of the site. (8 minimum, more for
larger sites)
4. At the pre-application meeting, the City will provide the applicant an information packet including
checklists for submittals, and lists of adopted standards.

City of Page - Development Plan Review Submittal Process
5. For larger sites, complicated sites, or sites with known drainage problems or complicated utilities,
applicant and the review team will visit the site after the pre-application meeting or at a date scheduled
during the pre-application meeting.
Site & Construction Plan submittal process overview:
1. Site plan and Construction plan submittals are received by the Community Development Coordinator.
Developer shall provide digital files (pdf format) of all submittal documents and 3 hard copies.
2. The Community Development Coordinator will review the submittal for administrative completeness, prior
to City departmental review.
3. After reviewing the submittal, the City staff will provide the developer with a) approval, without
comments, b) approval with comments, or c) resubmittal required with comments. Submittals approved
without comments may move to the next submittal step in the case of a site plan submittal, in the case of
a construction plan submittal a permit is still required.
Step 2 - Site Plan Submittal: Submit site plan package per the site plan checklist.
The following elements have been added to the site plan requirements:
1. Underground and overhead utilities
2. Delivery truck turning movement (if applicable)
3. Solid waste dumpster and trash truck (AASHTO SU-30) turning movement (if applicable)
4. Easements: existing & proposed
5. Setbacks based on zoning or land use requirements
6. Estimated pre-development and post-development impervious areas
7. Proposed retention/detention location
8. FEMA Floodplain
9. 2-ft (minimum) contours
The following additional elements have been added to the site plan submittal package requirements:
10. Preliminary drainage statement – required for all projects adding impervious surface. Describes the
general approach to stormwater management.
11. Traffic generation analysis – required for all new commercial and industrial sites.
12. Variance request to adopted engineering standards

Step 3 - Construction Plan Submittal: Submit construction plan package per the construction plan submittal
checklist.
Step 4 – Post Construction: The developer shall prepare “as-built” plans or record drawings for public
improvements prior to receiving the certificate of occupancy.

Pre-application Meeting Checklist
Note: The following items are optional, but will enable City Staff to provide greater input to the developer and
should make the Pre-application meeting more effective.
1. Aerial photo of the site and location map.
2. A concept level drawing/sketch of the proposed development.
3. A written scope of work describing the project and relevant building and engineering issues.
4. Photos showing the site from all angles looking into and out of the site. (8 minimum, more for
larger sites)

Traffic Generation Analysis ‐ Requirements
A Traffic Generation Analysis Memorandum is required for site plan submittals. The intent of the traffic
generation analysis is to determine if a traffic impact analysis1 (TIA) is required. A TIA is required for all
developments generating 100 or more peak hour trips2. A TIA may also be required if any of the following are
true:
1. current traffic problems or concerns exist; or
2. the public may perceive an adverse impact on the adjacent neighborhoods or other areas; or
3. the proximity of site driveways to other driveways or intersections could create traffic concerns; or
4. other specific problems or concerns may be aggravated by the proposed development.
A variance for a Traffic Generation Analysis Memorandum will be considered if the estimated trip rate during
the peak hour is less than 30 vehicles per hour with appropriate justification.
To quickly estimate if a proposed project will generate enough peak hour trips to require a TIA, please see
Table 2. This table should be used only to estimate if a TIA may be required and not as the basis for actual
trip generation calculations. The most recent version of the ITE Trip Generation Manual shall be used for all
trip generation calculations in the TIA or Traffic Generation Analysis Memorandum. Rates for additional land
uses not listed in Table 2 are found in the ITE Trip Generation Manual. For land uses not found within the ITE
the engineer shall estimate and provide justification for trip rates. If estimated trip rates are greater than 75
trips per hour then trip generation rates shall be studied at three equivalent sites and compared to similar
rates in ITE.
Traffic Generation Analysis Memorandum
A Traffic Generation Analysis Memorandum shall be written and prepared by a registered professional
engineer in the State of Arizona. The traffic generation analysis memo study horizon is opening year and the
minimum study area is the site access driveway(s).
The memo can be submitted in letter format, stapled with attachments, and shall be sealed by the registered
professional engineer. The memo is required to be submitted with the Site Plan Submittal package and should
include the following:
1. description of proposed land uses and sizes;
2. trip generation, daily and peak hour(s), see example Table A;
1 Traffic Impact Analyses shall follow the most current version of ADOT Traffic Engineering Guidelines and Processes, 240 Traffic Impact Analyses, available on ADOT’s website: https://www.azdot.gov/docs/default‐source/traffic‐library/tgp0240‐2015‐06.pdf?sfvrsn=2.2 ADOT Traffic Engineering Guidelines and Processes, 240 Traffic Impact Analyses 240.4.
