 Section 3-1  Pre-Application Process           

(1) Subdividers shall submit a Sketch Plan to the Kanab City Planning Commission as part of the pre-application process prior to the submission of a Preliminary Plat. The Sketch Plan is intended to enable the subdivider and the Kanab City Planning Commission to have an informal preliminary review along with input from the City Manager and the Zoning Administrator and others of the site plan for general scope and conditions which might affect the plan. For large areas where development is anticipated over an extended period of years, the Sketch Plan shall show the area for which preliminary plan approval will be requested for the first phase of development and also show a concept sketch map of the entire property and its environs. The concept sketch map will have no official standing or approval. It shall be amended or modified from time to time by the subdivider as deemed appropriate. This Sketch Plan as well as other submittals shall be receipted by the Kanab City Planning Commission or an authorized representative.

(2) This Sketch Plan shall include the following:

The general location of the subdivision and the property boundaries of the proposed subdivision area, date, outlined in red, true North and designated public access. It should show significant natural and man-made features on the site and within one-half (1/2) mile of any portion.

b. Topographic contours from available data, e.g. USGS maps.

Southwest District Health approval for the type of water system proposed; also, documentation of water rights and of historic water use.

d. Type of sewer or sanitary waste system proposed, as approved by the Southwest District Health Board.

e. Acreage of the entire tract as well as the number of lots and the average size of the lots.

f. Brief written statement or oral presentation in sufficient detail that the intent of the subdivider is clear to those who review proposals.

Section 3-2  Feasibility of Water and Sewage Systems

At the time of pre-application the subdivider will be required to show the feasibility of the proposed water and sewage systems necessary to meet the requirements of the Ordinance, the local health officer and the State Division of Environmental Health, as indicated by letters of feasibility from such health officers. Subdividers shall submit required Preliminary Plat materials and supporting documents of a proposed subdivision to the Kanab City Planning Commission offices for approval prior to the submission of a Final Plat. Submission requirements and time required for review and notification are indicated in this Ordinance. Prior to Sketch Plan approval, the Kanab City Planning Commission or a representative shall have made an on-site visitation to the proposed subdivision.

The Kanab City Planning Commission shall advise the subdivider of possible problems with the proposed subdivision within 30 days after it receives the Sketch Plan. Approval of the Sketch Plan shall be good for one (1) year. Thereafter, approval of the Sketch Plan will have expired unless a Preliminary Plat has been submitted to the Kanab City Planning Commission.
