Prior to the filing of an application for the approval of a
preliminary plat, the subdivider or condominium developer (as applicable)
shall be required to file an application for a sketch plan review
and to consult with all affected utilities, the Town Zoning Administrator,
Town Engineer, affected Town departments, and Town Plan Commission
in order to obtain their advice and assistance. This consultation
is mandatory and is intended to inform the subdivider or condominium
developer (as applicable) of the purpose and objectives of these regulations;
the Town Comprehensive Plan; Comprehensive Plan components; duly adopted
plan implementation devices of the Town; the availability of sanitary
sewer, public water supply, stormwater management facilities, and
site grading requirements; and to otherwise assist the subdivider
or condominium developer (as applicable) in planning the development.
In so doing, both the subdivider or condominium developer (as applicable)
and Town of Barton may reach mutual conclusions regarding the general
program and objectives of the proposed development and its possible
effects on the neighborhood and surrounding area. The subdivider or
condominium developer (as applicable) will gain a better understanding
of the subsequent required procedures.
